Umm, I don't want to come off as a CW but I really just want a fresh, solid 1.7 like the car would have had new. I guess I can do it myself and have a machine shop do all the really detailed stuff, will I need any special tools to do this at home? besides the run of the mill mechanic's tools?

Why a 1.7 though when you can get a lot more power using a few modern ideas (cam/valvetrain)? You leave a monstrous amount of torque on the table.

If you want to do it yourself, check out Aircooledtechnology's kits. The 2056 is affordable and gives you a lot of bang for the buck.
