Get the atkins video, and it will be helpful if you get the engine stand adapter that is made just for these rotaries. Good luck!

puller for the flywheel, it can be a bitch to get it off

torque wrench, that should be obvious though

micrometers and such, you have to measure tolerances

impact wrench if at all possible, it will make your life so much easier

i used bruce turrentines video that rotary aviation sells, it was a great help as well

good luck!
