It's not very likely that you'll get away with no machine work. Possible, but not likely. If the crank doesn't turn freely when you reassemble, you'll need to have that fixed (some variation of a line bore). And yes, by all means, fix any stud problems now. The studs don't break as much as they pull out of the case on 2.7's. Case savers are a better bet than timeserts. Has the oil bypass mod been performed? And with that heat, make sure that the cooling tin mod is done, too. Some spot face the through bolt holes, too. That'll help with the leaks.
