Default Head Porting

Where can I look to just get prices and what is done to the head. Basically, the guy doing my head wants to get into it and doesnt know what the going rate is for this market.

Uh the guy doing your head wants to "get into it"? You mean he's learning on yours? Ack!

I charge $850.00 for a full ported street head with stock parts ,5 angle valve job, cleaned, and assembled with new valve seals. hard parts are extra.

I thought Honda heads dont do well with 5 angle valve jobs.

He has lots of experience in this feild. He works for Panoz building their race engines and He owns his own shop that called Head Flow Research. He learned on a spare LS head that I have, then I cut a B16 head into 8 pieces. He really didnt learn anything new, just different from what He is used to. He just wants to get into this field because its the place to amke money.
