Nice pics and story so far, keep it coming.

I would ask your builder to show piston to valve clearance, plus retainer to seal etc. Hopefully he can quote this, and not hesitate.

I start a dummy build with the camshaft, then the crank, then one piston and rod, then one head with 2 valves and light checking springs.
Dial indicator on the valve retainer while watching the VTP clearance, versus crank fitted timing wheel.
