Hugh, i dont think you will have any problems doing the major yourself. the head and crankshaft, send them out to a machine shop, have them do the valves, plane the head if necessary, and also check the crankshaft and cut it if required. i would have the machine shop get your bearings. may be a couple dollars more, but then you have the right ones.( i now have an extra set of 10 under main and rods for an m). with a shop manual, pretty much everything else is just dis-assemble, clean it all up and re-assemble. the major done by yourself will prolly run 800 or so including parts and machine work. when done, you will know what you have. when i do a teardown, i get a box of zip lock baggies, and label all the bolts and such and bag em. then when it comes time to re-assemble, you know where everything goes. give rusty farmall a shout for the engine o-h kit, he can set you up.
