The engine removal has started I just need to take 6 bolts out of the transmission cross member and it should be ready to pull. I popped the head off the engine and was pleasantly surprised to find no excessive bore wear. Based on a visual alone it seems that I should be able to put decent sized valves in the engine at a later date which should help the breathing a lot. Still deciding on the intake setup but I have a few months, October will be here very quickly so hopefully I can still get everything done in time.
