Keith,

It sounds like you have a plan, that is a good start.
Always good to check all bearings/shims.
If I can add something here, be careful of the lifters you put in. I had a fellow bring in some single adjust ones and the foot diameter was too small. Make sure to use ones the same if not slightly larger than your current ones.

Humor, none, but I bet you said some words getting that head off you don't normally say...............

Enjoy and stay safe, John
