Don't get it right, just get it running.
Your thread, your words.
If the 302s clean up and look good with no major issues; then lap the valves in, throw some fresh valve seals on it, and button it up. You're losing sight of your original intent. This ain't supposed to be a 100k motor, just a solid coffee and ice cream getter that can squawk the tires when you so desire. Focus!
Just my opinion, but it's your money.
