[QUOTE="RBB, post: 16031445, member: 152686"] I don't think there's a whole lot of value in porting the heads unless you're going big boost. After discussing with Jim, I had JDM do a 3 angle valve job on my build. My heads also needed a line bore since the cam journals were slightly scored. The valve job and the line hone were grouped together as one item on the receipt at a cost of $2K, so I can't tell you how much just the valve job was. I'll go ahead and post the receipt here just so you all can get an idea. I bought a brand new short block from JDM (not included on this receipt) , so this is pretty much just head work and long block assembly. I have about $2,400 of expenses on here that you're probably not going to need (10% lower, Ferrea SS valves, shipping, etc). What isn't included on here, though, are all of my timing component upgrades, and cams/springs, which were pretty costly....at least another $5K. It's not a cheap endeavor, you can see the labor on long block assembly alone is $3.5K. [/QUOTE]
