I don't want too go through the trouble of sending them off for a few weeks new ones cost about $2000 for the pair.from what i have seen and a port job i think is about $600 to $700 a head . so between shipping and down time it seems easier too just buy the heads and reuse my springs cams etc.just don't know what kind of power i will get for the money?

you already have a blower, why not spend that money on a forged bottom end??? You should be close to a new bottom end installed for 2k, i have seen em priced around 1200 bucks just for the parts.

About 12-14 LBs of boost would put you at some really nice numbers, and you wouldn't have to worry about pushing the motor beyond its limits anymore.
