Very cool build you have going here dude. You're doing a lot of similar stuff that I plan on doing to my K5 project so I'll be following along for ideas.

So did you just do a quick hone to freshen up the hatching on your cylinders or did they do more of a .005/.010 cleanup hone? If you wind up going to an oversize piston you can go with flat tops to pick up around the same 10:1 compression as swapping on 243/799 heads with the dished pistons.
