Porting prices vary, I've seenCNC portingas high as $1500, that is without labor and parts to R&R the heads. That could be another $500-$600.If you do the cams at the same time there probably shouldn't be additional labor to install them. Cam prices are around $800 with related parts. So with that being said, you could be looking at close to $3000, but hey prices vary, you need to call your local shops to get an accurate price for the area where you live.
