Thanks for all the help. I think based on the cost, work and general PITA involved in a 20 year old boat that is not going to increase much, if any in value no matter what I do to it I will just rebuild the 502's. I will decide on the HP I want to throw at them, maybe play it safe at 500(I have decided that 500 is safe despite what TD says), maybe take my chances at 600, definitely no higher than that. Sad thing is that for close the price of rebuilding the 502's, I could get some much higher capacity trannys, if only they would fit.
