Default EK4 head On B20 bottom end

Could you give me some pointers if you have any experience with this? I'm going to do one (not myself lol) in the next year or so and just wanted to know how much work is involved, I know that the bottom end needs some oil ways drilling for the Vtec or so I've been told!
