Really you would want machining on the bore of the block....
Clean up hone of the cyl.
then new forged pistons
new rings
new Rods
new bearings (a must) since your in there already
then assembly
it adds up..... then ya start ading other things since your in there...
ARP main studs, head studs, new oil pump.....
