Default 455 use what i have

Hi Guys, i have a 73 455 that i am going to put in my 74 ta. im going to take out the original 74 455 and put on a pallet. i have found that the 73 has about .002-003 wear in the clyinders. it also has the 4x 1h heads, i was thinking about honing the clys and re ringing it, new bearings new t chain new oil pump and i have a ppr tc 01 hf cam. the heads i was going to cut .050 to 104 cc,s. would that get me to 8.7-8.8 comp.? the pistons seem to be at .005 deck. i dont have a big budget at this time so id like to get what i can get with what i have. also would it be worth it to work the ports a bit, like maybe the jim hand way in his book ? or not. thanks BLUE TA ps what hp and trq would you think?
