I totally agree with Woodsy.

If you were talking a show car and wanted original motor that's one thing but that's not the case here.

Someone posted about setting valve lash as easy. Yes, after you've done a bunch of them. The net is filled with guys screaming for help after rebuilding motors and not starting or breaking something and having a bunch of re-do work and expense.

By the time you track everything down you need you'll have wished you just bought a rebuilt motor. But, I also know people that enjoy the challenge so it comes down to how much time and energy you want to put into the project.
