My guy advised me to go the minimum overbore to clean it up. He said "we are putting a lot of money into this block (I did ALL the machine work to prep it right)- if we go max bore now you the block is junk if you break something (piston, ring, etc). If we go the minimum bore to clean it up, you at least have a chance to rebuild/fix it."

Made sense to me....
