How many miles has it done?
If it's over say 50000 I would get a full refresh with bearings rings and seals but that's just me.
Don't no mate as its had this one put in as its a EJ20BUG and got told the old Sti lump gave in by the last owner but have done every one apart from the heads this is what's making me think

You would split a block and do bearings and rings on an engine showing no signs of any problems ? ..seriously ?
OP: If you are increasing power and have the engine out already then swapping the fibre gaskets for MLS would be easy to do at this stage, yes
Absolutely. If it's out and he's considering removing the heads then if it's that far apart I would deffo be fitting new bearings at least. But like I said that's just what I would do.
