Craig, you have a lot of good questions and it would take awhile for anyone to give complete answers on the forum. You might want to get these two books that will give you some good information:
"Engine Blueprinting" by Rich Voegelin gives a very comprehensive expanation of machine shop proceedures, blueprinting, and performance modification. It will help you know what to ask of a machine shop and what to look for in a good one.
The "bible" for any FE guy is "How to Rebuild Big Block Ford Engines" by Steve Christ. It gives a step by step explanation on all facets of FE engine rebuilding.
Both of these books are available at libraries (my local library has them both and its not especially large) or the internet booksellers all have them for less than $20.
Good luck. Bill Troth
