I'd cut the heads down to like 58cc and run a thicker gasket for a wider quench area .051-.065 give you some cushion on your nitrous tune up, and you'll definitely want to open those heads up a bit.

I have almost identical bottom end as you are planning. I have 317 heads milled .020" and am running a carb. That motor should run good in an s10
