How Do I Read A Dial Caliper ? ? ?

The problem as I see it is that you might spend a lot of $$$ on expensive specialized tools that may not be used but once or twice. I would get recommendations from local gearheads for a machine shop that is honest and capable of the kind of work that you want. You may want advice as well as skilled engine building. There is quite a difference in the way a high performance engine (more time and $$$) and a run-of-the-mill rebuild are done. E.g., balancing, proper tolerances, heads, porting, cam, valve train, rods, pistons, fasteners, etc,etc. I wouln't use a shop that I didn't have a lot of confidence in. This is just my take on it.
