If you check the Archives, I have a topic titled something like "Pics and Status Of My Turbo NA Bridgeport Engine Build" which covers the whole rebuild process. It's not a stock engine but the steps are basically the same.

Then there are various videos available. My absolute favourite is the Bruce Torrintine rebuild video by Rotary Aviation. Though I am told that it is no longer available. Atkins has a video, as does DIY-RE.

If someone can get a copy of the RA video, I might be able to copy it or something. If Aaron says it is good, believe him.
