Ported Heads

Anyone know where to get heads ported with good flow numbers for around $1500?

im guessing you have the aluminum LT1 heads, if you give me your email, ill send you some pics of mine. the machine shop doesnt have a flowbench(at least not that i know of, but they're workmanship is outstanding)
here is what they did for about $1500:
disassemble & measure
wash, glass bead, clean and inspect
port and polish intake & exhaust ports
polish & de-shroud combustion chambers
hone valve guides to true (.002-.0025)
grind 3 angle performance valve job
measure seat depth and equalize
mill .012 from head surface to flatten
dress edges & de-burr
grind valves & back cut face at multiple angles
match valve lenghts & grind tips

he also port matched my intake

I have started selling basically a CNC version of my head, as I run a gm casting lt1 head, I can give flow number if needed. $1495 with your castings, new valves, springs, ret, locks, ready to bolts on.

I started building my own web site, not done yet but you can take a look so far.
