Default engine rebuild

I just bought a 97 grand-am to drive thru the winter so im gonna start on the rebuild of my stang. ive never done the bottom end before so my question is how hard is it to do? the engine only has 60,000 KM since the last rebuild but i figure if im already in there i may as well do the whole thing. any advice would be great!

It's not that hard once you do it once or twice. Make sure you get all of your torque specs. right and double check everything that you do. There's really not much to it.
