This sounds like a good build! Look forward to reading what some of the gurus have to say as I'm wanting to do the same very soon! I would go to your local mechanic/machinist first to see how much everything is going to be, ie. Balancing rods,pistons,crank etc. Have the head skimmed, flywheel machined (just a freshen up if you're putting a new clutch in. Should be able to get a std replacement from Exedy for like 100-120.) Altogether this won't be cheap but I highly recommend it. Then a top and bottom VRS gasket kit. ( see my profile for auto surplus, they can get all of this for you including consumables.) Flush the radiator with some hot water and give it a clean... I would (depending in what's new and what's not) replace the consumables, oil filter, fuel filter, points, leads, rotor button, airfilter or in your case new socks/ ramflows for the carbies.
Also if you're stuck looking for something conscious member bige, he builds a series's race motors, he knows his s**t. Otherwise keep posing questions here, I look forward treading this as I'm preparing to do the same thing. I'd love to fuel inject one but unforunitely I can't do it all myself and it's not bloody cheap! Haha Good luck, keep us posted!
