I am not being facetious and there nothing I could tell you personally via PM or E-mail, that we all can tell you as a group on this thread.
So far you have ignored the suggestions I gave and committed yourself to huge cost and trouble. I'm not offended. They were meant to help you, not me. All my bikes run well.
You say you have "RTFM", but you continue asking questions that are directly answered in it, that also includes step-by-step procedures and even pictures. No worries there either, sometimes people need a little clarity.
I'm watching and will help if needed with whatever long circular path you decide on. So far 34:19*, and Barrett, along with the rest of this wonderful forum crew, are doing a stellar job answering you, so theres no need for me to repeat the very good advise they have given.
My unsolicited advice would be: Avoid the "might-as-wells" upgrades... BUT since you will have the engine on the floor and the cylinders off, split the case on that 30K engine and at least look at the whole thing. Especially the crank bearings, 2nd gear dogs/shift fork.
You've never ridden this bike, I doubt you want to do this job twice.
* 34:19 doesn't always re-build engines, but when he does, he does them on that family heirloom Persian rug just to prove he won't spill a single drop of oil
