Register and download the Helms manual for your car/engine. It should tell you most of what you need to know.
Is there really any "easy" way to weed through that download though?? I tried looking through it, but 18,000 pages in PDF form is a bit intimidating. I'm starting to think I'm probably better off just ordering the damn book
I have an outline via notepad at home that lists the beginning of each section. Like "Cylinder Head: 289," "Engine block: 426," etc. I'll post it when I return.
i demand the outline now lol, my scroll wheel is going to melt soon.

also a lil update, i got a carbide bit to notch the block with, ill take lots of pics, since i couldnt find much on it my self. either later tonight or tommorrow

well i orded the pistons and gasket sets a few days ago, they are due in end of the week, so thats all good.

what has me worried, is i went to the dealership today. the same one that runs the hondaautomotiveparts.com. i checked out how much it would be for all the engine bearings i would need, and the total came to $214!!!!, WTF, there is no way i am paying that much, where can i get a set cheeper, i would like to stay with oem bearings if i could.

Rod bearings ~ 100
