    well there is a thing called over head .the machines to do engine machine work are pricy.it is hard to say what your heads need .just added up the labor .race SS valves and new manganese bronze guides HP springs moly retaners valve locks valve seals .cut rocker stands down for ajustable valve train. mill head .hot tank heads . 3d valve seat job 4 angles . new guids honed .setup heads over 885.00 machine work price is the same for any make ford or chevy bbc chevy heads would be abit less if older heads they have ajustable valve train. valve price and valve springs and guids are no more then chevy .if i did some looking around i think your heads could be re built with good parts and a bigger intake valve for abit less then 880. i did some dove C and i could only get a ss intake valve abit bigger then stock
