Question Engine rebuild specs and parts

I am rebuilding my Lexus RX300 due to the engine seizing. The oil was thick as grease. Anyways, I need to know the tightening torque specs of the engine (cylinder head, rod, crank, flywheel, etc) and the crankshaft journal undersize measurements to 0.025", crank end play, engine block crank tunnel diameter and rod bearing big end diameter specs.

I need to know where is the most convenient and least expensive place to buy all the rebuild parts. I appreciate the help anyone can give me. Thank you.

Haynes got all those specs in their manual for Lexus RX300.
Also this is a place to visit.. Click on the green "Auto repair" one, in the middle.

I googled "lexus engine rebuild kits" and got many responses, do that and pick one out.

Can you tell us the history of the engine, oil change intervel and what kind of oil?
For rebuild tips you can try to email the owner of this web site.
