George has some great advice. If I may add a couple of things to his list. While the engine is at the machine shop I would have the rods converted to full float piston pins, they just bush the small end of the rod with a brass bushing, and drill a small hole for oiling. Then make sure dual retainers are installed to lock the piston pin in the piston. Reduces the drag in the assembly and helps the piston and rod combo locate better in the cylinder. Second I would port match the intake runners to the intake port on the head. Takes little time with a grinder and the flow improvements are well worth the effort.
