Porschedude's list is pretty good. I made my crankshaft holder by cutting V's in wood blocks and clamping them to my work table. Or do it Wayne's way and bolt the crank to the flywheel and just stand it vertically on a table. For the later 911s you do need the cam holder. They can be found for < $100, or borrow one. Also a Z block and dial indicator to set cam timing. Mechanical tensioners are good, or careful placement of C clamps to hold the chains taut. People seem to like the piston C clip holders for installation. It does look easy, but I heard they can over-compress the clips and deform them. Watch some videos, they can be installed without tools if you are careful.
