If I only had the cash. A good flowed head job alone with valves, if needed, could cost anywhere from $2 to $3 grand. At Least!!

When I had my B18 head worked (5 angle valve job, intake gasket matching, polishing and "ported as wide open as possible"), I paid $3750. The work took a week and a half.

I should add, though, that included balancing my rods and pistons, jet-hot coating the piston tops, and installing valvetrain. So, $3000 is a good figure for a good head job.

Yup, shit's expensive.
