Decking is around $75, resurface head is around $60, file fit rings ~$50. I know from my eperience fully assemble bottom end and all clearance check would cost you ~$300 on labor alone. Since you rebuild, micropolish the crank and balance ~125. Change new bearing ~$100. If you decide to stay NA and do LSVTEC check this out: http://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1676914
    Or if you plan to boost later, get some forged pistons and rods.
