They are gasket matched and have a "little" bit of porting to them (friends basement).
    I would think about investing in a valve job at least, since the heads are already off. As far as CnC porting, don't waste your money on that with those heads. If you know of someone that can actually do a 5 angle valve job, do that. I can also recommend someone that is very reasonable on prices with that stuff.
