The best thing you can do to make your top end rebuild go smoothly is get a factory service manual. There are a lot of things to check, clean when the top end is apart. You will also need to know torque specs to get it back together correctly.

IF the coating on the cylinder isn't scratched or worn beyond the service limit, it can be deglazed with a scotch brite pad and used again.
