Default Advice needed - 1978 W72 engine rebuild

Hi - Just picked up a 78 S/E with a W72 pontiac 400. I'm not sure how long the car has been off the road, but the carb and intake are in the trunk, so there is no telling what was going on before I got the car. To be on the safe side, the engine will need a full rebuild to stock specifications. I'm mechanically inclined and considering doing the rebuild myself. Are there any good guides out there for rebuilding a W72 and are there any pitfalls I need to be aware of?
