It is not necessary to remove the engine to do the work you mentioned. Engine overhauls - rings, bearings, valves - were/are commonly done with the engine in the car.

Concerned that you could not get the engine to run. The work you are proposing may not fix the non-starting problem.

Please keep us posted on your progress.

Edited to delete the paragraph about cylinder taper measuring as Mark indicated he checked the taper.
