IMO, take it to a engine pro that does it for a living....you need at very minimun a set of calipers to check every bearing for clearance, then fit every wrist pin, then the rings need a compressor, and the gaps set/filed....
I have attempted ONCE to help assemble a buddy's engine, and it did not work out at all.....
I suggest you let a pro do it....much more than meets the eye...
you maybe able to DIY but I would not bet on it....one screw up and it's over and you done shot a whole bunch of money and time/effort.....
take it to a pro....
NOW, above I referring to the short block, it's fairly easy to slip the cam in place and install prepped fresh heads, adjust valves...etc....
but short blocks are where the true machine/assy work is....NO room for error either....
