Fellow Mainah,
What I would do is get the block and head machined to get them nice and flat so they take a good head gasket seal, especially since it's gonna see boost. Get the cylinders bored .030 over and honed.

Just what I would do...

A shop in Portland (can't think of the name, get back to you) charges around $100, but they really stress that you should let them plane it too while you're there, good guys. Don't remember the total tho.
