Hi Chris,
The 3.2 most likely had alusil cylinders so I would have reservations trying to throw rings in it.
I would definitely upgrade those rod bolts to ARP.
Be mindful of the pressure fed tensioners, they do have a service life and the replacements have been known to fail. A friend of mine built a motor with new tensioners and had a failure 2 weeks after delivery to the client. The parts from the tensioner got between the intermediate sprocket and the case and generated a nice hole.

Lastly, I have had issues with old ECU's, wiring and sensors. That system was in production when the Commodore64 was the preferred PC...
