If you have the frame bare and take it to a good frames man to reset teh dropouts (and i would recommend Fattic wholeheartedly, as well as Rich Gangl in Colorado and Ron Boi in Chicago area), have it aligned and the head tube faced. A straight bike rides muuuuch better than not straight, and a proper headset installation is an additional joy to ride!
