I'd just bolt them on as is, cost vs benifit with budget heads really isn't worth it

thats what figured . kinda thought if spent alot money to have em ported in polished in sht i wouldnt be able to tell much of a difference . whats a good iron head and price ranges. cuz i almost thought bout sellin my heads and intake cuz i know someone wantin it pretty bad and jus buy a real good set of heads . i dont really care to much for aluminum heads cuz heard good and bad bout aluminum heads and for a every day driver think be better off to stick with cast .

I would have them port matched and a 3-5 angle valve job. if you want you could always increase valve size...I would have the raised bumps works out in the ports as well
a fully ported and polished heads are very unnecessary on a very mild set up like yours

i would just have the bumps ported out and have a valve job. its not really cost effective to do much more
