Kinda sad and haven't been into engines to much....had backed off a bit also... before hand in hindsight.
I've asked all the questions I've Ever wanted to know about a cylinder head...modding or creating.
ER or Darin sometimes Scott. Dude's good but $9000.oo for a Ls7 top-end. I'm with if you've got the $ but this cost for a TFS casting and MSD intake.
When I read that 🤔 to self
self.

self. B, I don't need to call no one about a Ls7 top end @ 9k. I made a Ls7 head and priced building or putting together a STR8 head with a smaller port. Cost still wasn't 9k with all parts and intake.
DD spider. TSP has made 750 with a Ls7 top-end > factory intake* although a 454. Cam swap and milled heads with a 427 Ls7? Waiting on NPS response, builds all types of engines besides the LS up in Canada. Race builder? Some just don't post here... This is OLD. And he said what he said 750 with Factory heads and intake.

Second, it seems like the price is a misrepresentation. You make it look like $9K for the heads. That's not even close. But I'll play along...
Mast heads just the casting - $1450 each, so $2900.
Valves - $850 for 8 intake valves from manley. $250 for the eight exhaust valves
Springs - PAC 1335, since you like to run lift - $630
Cam - $450
Lifters - Assume you'll run either Jesel or isky? - $1300
CID intake - $1050 if set up for eight injectors, $1500 if set up for 16
Pushrods - $250 for manton custom
Rockers - no YT for you, so likely Jesels or T&D, so est $1500, which is probably low...
We're at $9200 now, without the expensive options, and we haven't done the setting up, retainers, locks, shimming, gaskets, fluids, throttle body not on the list yet. Can play again. Pick the porter's casting you want, then pay for CNC, and you're in the same ballpark. Brodix set up with stainless intake valves is $3600, and if you're cutting costs there, then you've already made the point.
The heads fully set up are only half the cost.
I did do a cheaper LS7 top end set up. Didn't make the power. I could make it make the power. Won't have the reliability. Want power AND reliability? Grab your wallet!

NPS said 750 crank hp, in 2014 NPS created his own Ls7 head using more than likely the Brodix Ls7 castings. The video seen was a Factory intake with NPS created Brodix heads. NPS now says he's doing 750 with Either or head and factory intake. I'm not limited to Ls1tech and 1 builder. Ain't nothing new out here being done!

Darth no way around 9k and TFS Ls7 heads ...Jesus himself wouldn't think of asking me to change my mind knowing who and what I know as he lead me to them. Yeah this is the reason I don't like dude ....10k for a bowl and SSR job from a TFS 260 cc head and it's parts.
Call BES and ask what 10k would get you.

I've made as much power as a Mamo top end package (on a SBE LS7) with nothing but off the shelf parts. The cam I used was even a blower cam, originally.

Even both my tuners and one holds the LDR record said Mamo's stuff is pretty awesome in how it performs NA and neither of them frequent LS1tech YB or any other forums they just see results first hand.
