As far as putting it together, or ways to build it up for increased power?

On your cover, for those of us who have watched the 1950's Bionic Man on You Tube you should have carried out the modified quote:
"...You can rebuild it. You have the technology. You have the capability to rebuild the world's finest engine. Better than it was before. Better, stronger, faster."

I personally would like to see both.
For example, for installing conrods, the way to install stock rods. And right next to that, the way to install true forged conrods. And every single nuance and important step that must be taken. Including important things such as applying installation grease and exactly where to apply it, which piston should be at TDC when installing rods on which specific cylinders, how to clear those pesky oil squirter tubes without damaging them during the install, and every other important step to ensure you don't FUBAR your block.

I agree. If I were to get a B302 short block, I would like to see how to uninstall the top end an install it in the new engine.

both for the heads, I dont know a whole lot about taking them apart but I also would like to know how you would choose the right cam, would you do a phase limiter or a phase lockout, should I do springs, will porting / buying a ported head make a big differance and maybe explane a little about CFM. Just putting it out there, I know most people just say put a blower on it and be done but then again I'm not most people I just want to see an area alot of people seem to skip.
