Ernie, I suspect Ross Miller has more experience with this than any of the rest of us and IIRC he has commented once or more often about his opinion for the max warpage before requiring surfacing; perhaps someone can dig out his advice or he'll see this and comment. A local machine shop here that has done a fair number of L8 engines has told me they like to resurface if warpage is 0.010" or more. Another reason to resurface is if you have significant etching or erosion around the tween-cylinder webs and water jacket openings.
