I don't think I'll be doing the final assembly. I'll probably have to find a shop to put it together for me, just to make sure I don't miss something important. As it is, I'm already out of my comfort zone with trying to figure out what's broken. I was expecting to see scoring and gouging on the #1 cylinder wall, but it doesn't really look at all bad.
I think I need to get someone experienced to figure out what needs replacing, then have 'em do the work. Unless of course it's just cheaper to get a new shortblock, I think I could assemble it if I'm just putting the heads back on the block.
