Thank you guys for all your help!  I have a few choices:

1. Ship it to Lycon 12k Iran w new cam and lifters or 20k overhaul they said they had a six month wait!

2. Order the parts and do it myself.  I would like to do it myself, I'm mechanically confident and meticulous. 

Does anyone know an AP that would be comfortable with this idea in the Phoenix area?  Inspecting along the way and signing it off?  

This would be new cam, DLC Lifters, new bearings, moh gasket kit, ring kit, hone cylinders, wrist pin bushings, would only change rod bearings if mains were contaminated, if so would have to order rod bolts.  

You don’t need to remove rods or pistons to split the case.  Talk to Rich @N201MKTurbo for a recommendation in your neighborhood.

Just in case you're not aware, we have a local engine shop at CHD that is pretty reputable.   They did the IRAN/teardown on my engine after a prop strike with the previous owner.  It only had about 38 hours on that when I got it, and it's been good.   My experience with them has been good when I've needed to consult with them.
