I really just don't know what type of parts to get i want named brand and i would really appreciate it if someone could help me with this..

Im in the same process. I want to rebuild my SOHC but want around 180-200 whp. Im not sure what the best way to go budget wise is. A small T25 setup or maybe a 50-shot. On top of this I did alot of searching and cant seem to find where to get the rebuild parts/gaskets or kit. Someone should help us out?

Rebuilding for performance and budget do not go in the same discussion. You can rebuild on a budet OR build to add performance. very rare to do both.

As for parts, any decent parts house can either get what you need or point you where localy you need to go.

you can go somewhat in the middle of mod/cheep..im going a little wild..but if ya stay mild you can net a nice upgrade with good decent internals on the cheep.
