Nema 17 motors will work fine.

As for a board I would reccomend RAMPS. Its a bit more expensive but sanguinololu isn't very friendly to newbies in my experience.

Best of luck

Much agreed RAMPS will save you a lot of trouble down the road and it has a lot of upgradability. Also nema 17 are pretty much the standard. Good luck with your build. If you have any other questions feel free to get whole of me.
