i dont want to comment on prices cause this is mr. porter's post,, but its something you fight with when guys want to redo factory heads,, there is no cheap way around it..

clean heads
new guides
hard exh seats
valve job
deck
bowl port and int openings
deck to a cc number or just clean up
cut for seals/springs
assemble

new valves
new springs
cups/locators
locks
retainers




yeah, I already know how much it can be I just wanted to see it listed in this post as it directly relates to money spent vs. what you get.
I'm not knocking Dwayne either as I also have customers that insist on using oem heads and spending large amounts of $$$ even though there are much better alternatives out there...hence the reason for this thread.
Just interesting to see guys spend this much on older iron when for almost nothing more they can have new iron or come close to aluminum.

I guess that's what makes the world go 'round!!
