Yeah, not sure where you're getting this info from. I built a 2.4 for my Evo with no problems at all except getting the wrong freeze plugs initially. I would've preferred to do a 2.3 but MAP did the machine work for me and didn't like the deck surface, so I started fresh and 2.4 blocks are much cheaper than Evo blocks.

Personally, I wouldn't do anything to the cylinder head except the lightest port cleanup, the factory valves, springs and retainers are plenty good for what you're talking about. That's unnecessary spending doing anything to such a good factory head.
