Also since the bottom end wasn't touched I really recommend performing a compression and bleed down test. Since the top end is all new and the bottom end is not, your older rings may not be able to handle the new pressure and you may be losing your power right there through the bottom end.
One last thought about all of this....how old is the gas you are using?Sometimes NOW are the "good old days"...
