Default Where to get Stock heads CNC ported and Valves replaced

Where/Who would be a good place to send stock heads to get ported and valves replaced??? I know Texas-Speed does them. Anybody else have any referals for CNC shops that do a good quality job? Also that has a reasonable price??

With what it would cost for new valves, CNCing, spring packge, etc. it would probably cost effective to just buy a new set of heads from TSP or a similar vendor. Check before you get an inferior set of heads ported.

IM guessing they probably do. I got quoted 750 to do intake,exhaust, and the bowls CNC ported. If you do springs and valves it'd be around 13xx something i think

Yeah I was comparing prices for the heads. If i get some PRC heads they're about 500 more. AFR 1200 more. I might wait and just save up for some AFR's
