As for being out of round, with the oil clearances where they are, I am going to say it is going back together as-is. Like you said, it worked before. And I am not taking it much past the stock RPM range, and even with the increased compression, it should survive.
I am masking everything off (heads and block) for paint now. Once the enamel is fully cured I will begin reassembly. I know there are a couple tiny pieces I will be forgetting, but save waiting for parts this build is about to begin.
I will post pictures of my progress as I get the chance.

Sounds good
LAN knows the piston specs, so, whatever he says. If Piston has stock compression distance [pin center to top] and you are using stock headgasket, .006" removed may be perfect for octane tolerance with 11.1:1.
Again, whatever LAN says, he would know the specs
Waiting for pictures
