if you overheated it to the point that it scored the cylinder walls then you are either overhauling the engine or swapping it out for a new one. mostly if you didnt extremely overheat it the cylinder walls will be fine, and you just need to install a new headgasket / mill the head if its warped. Other than that, there isnt much else that can go wrong.
