Default Zetec turbo - HEAD HELP?!

Ive built the bottom end of my silvertop zetec turbo for my series 2 escort.

1mm oversized forged pistons
Steel Rods
ARP bolts
New oil and water pumps
New shells, gaskets ect

I have a stage 3 T3 turbo on the CVH manifold, Rover TomCat Turbo inlet manifold, Pace intercooler, alloy rad, omex 600 ecu.

Now that its come to the head, what do you guys recomend i do? I was going to leave it standard apart from port and polish and flow the manifold adaptor plates to suit. (alloy weld and grind out) then fit uprated valve springs.

With the parts i already have, i was hoping to achieve around 300bhp?

I also have a mk1 Focus RS gearbox already mounted on the old zetec in the car. With custom shafts. Just got to convert it to hydraulic.

Any help would be much apritiated!

Cheers, Tom.
