Any ideas what this might cost me?  Any particular questions I should 
ask of potential machine shops?

Tim,
   I did my '54 235 myself about five years ago.  I had the machine work done 
by a local shop and bought all the parts from my FLAPS.  I took my time and 
have been pleased with the results since.  It cost me under $1000 to bore .060 
over, new pistons, rings, pins, bearings, cam, lifters, complete valve job, 
and new gaskets.  Truth be known, it ain't rocket science!
