Default B20B engine rebuild - Fast road/track use

Just picked a B20B engine up from Andy near Droitwich and am in the process of degreasing the block and dis-assembling. Looking to have the engine rebuilt for fast road/occasional track use in my Amazon so would appreciate some advice as to specification. The engine turns and the bores look fine. I plan on leaving the crank as is but with new pistons/rings. Thinking of running a C or D cam with polished and ported head. Would a lightened flywheel be advisable? I'll be fitting new ancillaries such as a new water pump, oil pump and 123 distributor. And all gaskets of course. I also need to mount the engine on an engine stand so what thread and length of bolts would I need to attach the stand to the engine housing. Many thanks for any advice.
