basicallytriple check everything use extra lube triple check all tolerances make sure you use a reputable machine shop, if possible go with a setup thats been tried and proven, use common sense and for gods sake, do not build the engine get it back together then fire it up and forget to put oil in it, heard of it happening to a man at a local speed shop, don't know if its true or not but i wouldn't want to find out.
