    Anyone got an idea on about how much money im looking at spending to get the heads cleaned up, springs set, and a valve job?

    Ill be using Alex's GT40 spring kit, and valves.
    Your best bet would be to call them and see. Ask them for recommendations on the valves as well.

      Trevor Johnson in Rockwall is the best you will find for cylinder head work. TS sends theirs to Houston and the Houston guys send theirs to Trevor, wtf.

          As said above, aluminum heads are a better idea, but considering budget - stick with what you have. Porting will definitely drive you out of your budget range and into aluminum head territory.

          I'd take the heads to Morgan and Sons Race engines in Grand Prarie. Get them decked, springs set, and a good valve job and you will get all you can get from those heads.
          Yep, right before the valve seat and right after is real important. Don't want to skimp on this area

            Don't worry about what you can't change.
            Do the best you can with what you have.
            Be honest, even if it hurts.
