I already bought a kit that comes with timing chain oil pump and water pump. I figure the stock should be good but will see. gonna hook up a mechanical oil gauge to keep a better eyeball on the pressure!

I'm sure it will, as long as all the clearances are within spec. Also, IMO, it won't hurt a THING to run an extra quart. Think about how much surface area the oil has at its full level and you can understand how it would barely make a difference in the oil level.
