Is this the same shop that said Mike's block was shit even though it wasn't? LOL. Good luck on that one.

1. they degreased the block for me and it looks brand damn new, was wondering if i didnt paint it, if it would rust or not?
Wipe it down with rubbing alcohol and then hit it with a hi-temp primer and follow up with a hi-temp paint. You really won't need it, but for $10 while you have it in front of you, this is the time to add a little bling factor to the block imo.

2. what do i torque the aem cam gears down to? the 5 bolts around the gears that is.
How many bolts do they come with?

3. how do i push the crank sprocket back onto the crankshaft?
We used a copper mallet and a 34mm socket. Then beat the hell out of it. It goes on almost all the way. You should barely be able to get a fingernail between the back of the sprocket and the block. Also, make sure you don't lose the keyway and put that thing on the right direction. Otherwise, you won't keep any timing and you'll have to drill/tap it to pull it back off and do it right.

7. what do i torque the arp headdstuds to?
Did you just grab them from the junk drawer or something? I think they come with a spec sheet that tells you that sort of thing. Much like about 5 minutes with the search would have told you too.
