Well, you could get custom cams built.... lol... other than that, no, adjustable gears are it and they're somewhat of waste on a N/A, IMO.
Yeah, that freeze plug sure wasn't helping.... I'm surprised you never saw any coolant leaking.
600+ HP on a stock HG?! That'd be the day... well, maybe it'd last for 2, but that's about it. I wouldn't trust the stock HG for more than about 350RWHP... not if I wanted it to last (and that's pushing it as far as I'm concerned).
Block and HG measurements are here:

As you don't know what's been previously taken off the block and head your machinist will need to measure both and you'll need to select a suitable head gasket after.
NOTE: Composite (OEM) head gaskets are NOT reusable!!!!
