    Depends, general understanding would be serious port & polish work done, 35-36mm inlet valves, 29mm outlet vales, 'flowed' valves and valveguides, usually go with double valve springs as well. Varies per seller though.

    You would be best off specifying what you want done, rather than saying 'stage x'. You know what will be done (or rather should be) and no chance of misunderstanding stages.. Different companies have different stages..

    best thing is to go to a scrapyard and see what they have, failing that ring around any mini places and see if they have any bad engines

    If you're gonna rebuild it. May as well buy each bit on its own! 50 quid for a block. 40 for a crank. Set of rods for 20 quid.
