i am going to get some machine work done and i was wondering if anyone could give me an idea of how much it would cost to get my heads resurfaced, cylinder bored and honed, valve job, and crank ground and balanced

i got my head resurfaced and the valves grinded for about $130. but some machine shops won't touch the head because of all the work involved in shimming it. i had to do the shims myself but the guy at the machine shop helped me get the shims i needed. Another machine shop around here want like $400 to do it but the would have shimmed it for me. It took longer but i think i went the right route. i about 9k mi on it so for with no problems. its not hard to figure out what shims you need it just takes time.
