With the rebuilt engine, before firing it for the first time, pull the coil lead and crank until you get oil pressure so that everythings nice and wet in there.

As for the su's, just 20w engine oil should do for summer (its summer there now right?) when it gets to the colder months maybe try some auto trans fluid for snappier throttle response.

With the bleeding of the clutch, You can do this as dodgeman has said on your own. just dont release the pedal until the bleeders been done up.

Is your slave cyl on the left or the right? If its not on the drivers side, its probably too hard to do it yourself.
I just pump the clutch pedal a few times with my hand, (you wont feel any pressure for a few goes.) hold the pedal down after the final stroke then crack the bleed valve and then tighten again, you should hear a little air come out, repeat this until you have 'pedal'.

Good luck and have fun learning!!
