I'm also following this path and have found these links to be helpful:

I own The Art of Tap Tuning, and the Luthiers Handbook and have found them to be extremely helpful.

This software will handle all your tap tuning needs and comes in two versions, lite and complete -both are under 100 bucks.

To do this the right way you'll need a force gage, the ability to build some fixturing, and a inch pound torque wrench. Also you'll need to build a master soundboard because you will need some sort of refrence to compare your experiments to.
