I’d probably Have a shop do the line hone, magnaflux the block and go through the heads to clean up whatever was needed their but assemble everything from that point. Unless there’s something extra tricky about these that could give me pause to assemble it

Head work can get really expensive if they need a lot. Also, be very careful Milling the heads. Since the chamber is round, it does not take much at all to make a big difference in chamber volume. I had mine milled .025" and went from 8.5 to 9.3. Also, make sure to look up the intake side milling amount too. It's different than most V8s because of the angle of the intake ports. I cannot remember exactly, but I think mine was milled somewhere in the .060" area to align the intake properly. Since the angle of the intake ports is very great, is has an exponential effect on the intake side.
