If you supply the heads, valves, springs, etc, most shops should be able to do a nice port job and 5 angle VJ for $600 or so.

WCCH has some very nice stuff.

$600 will get a 5 angle valve job, portwork, mill, clean and assembly thru me. This is based on reusing the same valves, springs, etc or at least the cusomer supplying them.
