Recently I've tried to do same thing. I've used this resources for 
creating my own build scripts:

http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomRestrictedModules
http://www.candelatech.com/oss/ubuntu-live-notes.txt

The last one is the best.

I've created some scripts, which automatically build kernel and 
ubuntu-modules packages with my own prefix. I'm working on script for 
building restricted-modules packages (i need nvidia), but didn't 
succeeded yet.

If you want, I can share  them.

Good luck.

PS. and yes, i'm not sure if custom kernel will speed up ubuntu. =(
