If everything were okay, i would agree. I am concerned about two things:
1) machining threads or inserts could get shavings in the cylinder bores.
2) there are already steel chips in the bores from the head gasket. As i rotated the crank to umbolt the flex plate from the TC, a lot of oily steel chaff was pushed up. I can only imagine there are steel chips down in the piston rings already, and that cannot be good and must b cleaned out, perhaps even have the bores re-honed.
