Im starting an engine build

I like square
Location
Marquette, MI
and I need a run down of things i'll need to make the build go easy and smooth. ive done a few 550's but I usually just threw them together and didnt care for it like I do on this one. Its a 61x 61x with some port work and basic bolt ons.
What will I need as far as thread locker, blue on everything?
Do I use antiseize on anything, if so what?
Should I rub some oil on internal parts when assembling?
Where can I get some basic torque specs?
The shims just went in the bottom when I pulled it so do I just look at the coupler and measure up with a straight edge to make sure its straight?
Anything else that will be helpful for a newb?

Im calling Paul Lehr this week to order up gaskets and all those goodies.

Just get a basic shop manual for the 701 motors. That will tell you everything and walk you through the process.
