For some details on an engine build at a engine builder, check out the thread "Hugo's engine build at the Magical Place (Vallero's Machine Shop)" in the http://www.norcalvdubs.com forum. 

Ray is showing some of the details of an engine build for a long-time customer and her bug Hugo. He shares some tips for performance and longevity in this long thread. Well worth some time looking at the text and the videos.

The daily driver engine he built for her ~26 years ago is still going strong and being moved to a bus, while this is a new engine for the bug.
