3.2 Engine Rebuild Best Practices

Howdy all!
It is that time, starting to collect parts for a total engine rebuild.

Do we have a sort of best practices for going through a motor? Is it worthwhile going to larger piston size? How about the individual throttle bodies? Can you still run heat with the Individual throttle bodies? Already have a Fabspeed exhaust but their heat kit was cobbled together at the last minute ("it fits a variety of cars") and fits poorly and looks terrible, is there a better exhaust system out there? Do we have a favorite cam?

The car is mostly an occasional commuter car that would benefit from more low end power but also who doesn't enjoy 6krpm shifts? Those running the individual throttle bodies, how is the reliability? I see some talk on need cam timing, but can we not just keep the flywheel timing?

So many questions and so many more I am not thinking of. Any other words of wisdom?

Thanks!!

Andrew
