Nick,
Those people who have given you the go ahead signal have space to work, tools to use, a car to install the engine, and has money allocated for the project. Assuming you could overcome all these obstacles, where would you store the engine? Would you let it sit idle for the next 5 years till you get the money to buy a roller?
Like what our friend from down under said, it is not that complicated. But you have to be realistic about your situation. You'll will spend at least $2k to get this engine to run assuming all the parts sent to you are in good condition. If you borrow an engine stand and yoke from someone, you won't be able to return them back in months or years in your case. But it is not improbable to do. Unless you want to have something like this:
