Read through this book several times, then disassemble the motor down to the bare block and begin the rebuild. Assume nothing, take everything you find at face value. If it's good for part of the rebuild, put it in one pile. If it's junk, put it in another pile. The very first thing I would buy after the book is a 12" dial caliper.
Here's an affordable unit that is obviously an offshore unit (China) judging by the price, but it's just fine as a starter tool for a young fellow to get used to measuring things in and on a motor. You can even measure block deck height with this 12" unit. My best advice is not to buy an electronic caliper. I have owned them and every time I would reach for them to use them, the batteries were dead. These DIAL calipers are bulletproof, they work every time you need them.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
