It's pretty straight forward to do but don't take much for it too go wrong then u have wasted a block! I'd recommend Harvey Gibbs scs, they did mine, obviously they have done 100's so their done right. Also piero at x power engines can do them. It's not worth taking a risk with a local engineering firm incase they ruin the block.

Anybody in and around Essex uses "Pmason engineering"

They done my 10 long studs and modded the water pump to suit along with the oil return to block by cylinder 3, cost about £350 all in including the studs/nuts/washers
