I hear ya bro if I had an extra head and a experienced machinist walking me through it then I would consider a DIY like that.

$450 cheap. that was for port polish. back cut valves 5 angle valve job, what ever work is involved in having oversized valves, and assembly.
i had him get me new seals so that added 48 bucks on there.

it's not bad, but they went alittle crazy on the intake ports. Make sure you spent sometime and do the intake manifold too!!!! Should give you nice gains.

Here's my attempt at porting a head for my srt. I bought a brandnew casting and went to town. I spent 8-10hours on the porting. I am 100% happy with the end results.

Yeah but yours ran alot more than $450 I am sure, not knocking on FFP's work it looks great and I am sure the flow numbers and dyno gains are great. But it is not very often that you can pick up a ported head, +1 valves and aftermarket springs/retainers for $450 total!!!
