$1600 w/ your core for Proheads bare CNC'd castings.

I would go with Patriot: $600 for CNC, $255 for PRC gold spring kit, $250 for int. & exh. valves, ~$55 for shipping.
Still a savings even after buying more parts. How much better could the Proheads port be for another $1000?? That's what i'll be doing when i disassemble and clean the 5.3L set i just got in the mail.

Check out RPM Motors. They have a machine shop in house and an excellent CNC design. Ask for Charlie to get specs.
