Default Minor headwork/porting... how much does it cost?

***looking for good places in the area***

So I was thinking about getting some head work done on my b16a head (lsvtec)

First of all i wanted to replace all the valves and seals + resurface and stuff to get it good as new.

and then maybe a turbo port job?

what kind of price ranges am i looking at? i've already pulled the head (having a 2nd car is the best thing in the world)

earl offers a full port job w/ full valve train w/ angle job and eveyrhting for 1500...... he uses portflow which is real good.

endyn also has good prices...ur looking at 1000-1500

i heard good stuff about rlz engineering, but very costly.

Send it to MI. I got my whole head rewprked with upped valves for $500. Done by modern cylinder head. They do all the 1000+hp V8 stuff and they did a nice job on my cylinder head. I don't know why you guys on the west coast pay so damn much for this stuff?

your looking at 150-200 just for a decent valve job

700 for porting with a flow bench

50$ to resurface

valve seals are 15 - 20$ from the dealer and should be installed free when they do the valve job
