Any ideas on the cost to machine an aluminum intake to take injectors? The intake has the bungs cast in so I imagine they just need to be machined. (Indy single plane intake)

It is a quick and easy job if the shop has the correct fixture and a CNC mill. If you take it to a shop that doesn't have a fixture then it is going to cost a bunch. So the answer is that it all depends.

Do you have the matching fuel rails already or do you need the fuel rails machined too? If you have the fuel rails already then you need to give those to the shop so they can make all of the holes line up. If you have a drawing showing the hole pattern then that will save a bunch of time. What about the brackets to hold the fuel rail? Do you have them or do you expect the shop to fabricate something custom?

Life would be so much easier if Edelbrock made an EFI setup for max wedge heads. I already had the heads, etc and then they came out with this system. I'm considering switching the top end to run this:
