Okay so I finally got my stuff together and sent my head to be built. I decided to go with:
-SI SS valves (nitrided)
-SBI bronze valve guides
-Ferrea valve stem seals
-Ferrea valve locks
-Exhaust manifold stud kit
-FP Comp Cam2 (272s)
-BC springs and titanium retainers
-Topline revised lifters
I also got everything else for a complete head installation including all new gaskets and timing components. When I dropped the head off the guy told me he will do it for 300 bucks cash. I was kinds suprised because this seems pretty low to me. This includes pressure check, resurfaced, hot tank, installation of everything, and a valve job for new valves. I don't know if I should be happy or nervous lol.

Yeah, I probably would have just done it myself.
Granted, through the hobby shop on base I have access to a free tank and crap. But It's not to hard of a job.
