It seems that you are intent on keeping with the 7M, so here goes what I would be doing...
Forget about the Rods unless you want to go for really high HP. Evidence from the states (for what it is worth) and others that the rods are good for about 500HP plus.
One thing that seems to be an issue is the oil pump. Buy a NEW one from Toyota and make sure the clearances are really good. There are NO High Volume pumps available off the shelf for 7M's despite claims.
Personally, I have been thinking of going down the route that you are heading (albeit with a spare engine), but the costs of doing a decent job, and the pics of the V8 nestled in the bay of a MA61 are proving very appealing. And when you add the results of JustenGT4 with the TT1UZ, it gets even more appealing.
I have a spare head (actually 2 in the shed) and some gaskets, but if they go, a quick swap job and some investnment in 1UZ gear may be the go....
Good luck and keep us informed of what the costs and results are
Cheers

OH, and BTW, be aware of customs and GSt on getting things from the states. They even apply GST to the postage !!!!
