You speak about this like it's a simple multi-step process.. it is not simple. You screw up one thing and the engine is toast.

A short block rebuild is not a basic DIY project, not like say, replacing the clutch, or adjusting valves, or even rebuilding the carbs.

If you've never done internal engine work before, just make sure you know what you are getting into. In which case, best of luck.

I dont think you're going to find an online resource that instructs you step by step how to re-ring the lower end. You may wish to buy a Clymer manual at the minimum, actual shop manual preferred.
