Default New Engine Completely, Got Questions

ok, i bought a 96 engine tranny and wiring harness for a soon to be swap (got it for 200 bucks with ecu, wiring harness, all the goodies from some retard in a near by town), the rings were shot and so were the sleeves so this is what i did,

since i am new to the tuning scene, i went to flatlanderracing.com and bought a dart block, pauter billet rods and forged pistons, and also sent in my crank to a local machine shop that does a lot of race engines for diff. apps and got it ground and knife edged at an extremely reasonable price (only because my friends dad owns it).

will i be able to run this setup (since it is stock bore and stroke) with the factory ecu that i have? what about engine balancing??? and also, where the fuck am i going to go when i buy my turbo to tune the ecu (or get it tuned to run the current setup)??? i have no idea of fuel mapping and whatnot since i am a diesel mechanic... as i have said on other posts.. i feel awfully stupid on this forum, but want to know how/where i can do this kind of stuff so i dont have to be so dependent.

thanks in advance
