I don't believe we can post prices, but I recieved a quote from Enterprise Engine (near Columbus, OH), Haisley Machine (around Ft Wayne, IN?), from Piers Diesel Research (somewhere up there in BC, Canada) and from Formula1 Diesel (Dallas,TX).

www.PiersDiesel.com
www.F1Diesel.com
I went with the F1 diesel package since I liked it the best. The service after the sale is nothing short of amazing from F1. (shhhh... don't tell DonM, his head's may get bigger )

I think you should never put any money into a head without checking for cracks , magnaflux , pressure test there are a number of ways and if the shop your at cannt then find a differant shop , also I hear a lot of talk here and elswere about surfacing heads look out for heads that have been cut to much or to many times , something I used to do , when I had my last shop, to save warped heads and give more life was to use an old comercial pizza oven and bockem when hot to straightem as much as possible before surffacing to take as little as possible off the head, it blows me away that most shops just keep on cutting and through the heads away if they are not tall enough.
