I agree, the hardest part is over. pull out the block and get it rebuilt, because if you don't you will want to be going in there doing that in about 30K because you will have gotten sick of burning oil and by then maybe your compression will have gone down. As long as you plan on keeping this car for the long haul, do it, you won't regret it and besides it it will be like a new engine.

Good luck!
