C heads needing oversized intake valves?

Hi All. I purchased a collection of heads last year from a fellow Olds guy and am getting around to having my machine shop clean and check them for cracks. There are several that have had porting or smoothing of the castings done to them. But this set also had the intakes cut large/deep. I decided to have my machine shop build them and offer to sell them complete, to make sure they were usable. He told me it could be done but would be expensive. If someone here has the ability to do the work themselves that might be the way to go. The exhaust is very smooth and the AIR bumps have been removed. The intake side has been ground but not smooth like the exhaust side. The combustion chamber has been smoothed. Several of the intake seat areas are cut into the exhaust seats, so those exhaust seats would need replaced. They have the exhaust crossovers plugged. I would take $75 plus shipping from Southern Oregon for the pair. Attached are several photos. An option to get cheaper shipping costs would be going through ebay. I have sold several sets of heads and so far the most expensive shipping was $135 for a pair from Oregon to Connecticut. I would need to raise the purchase price to cover the fees, but total costs may still be cheaper depending on the location of the buyer. If someone wants to see a closeup of any areas let me know. John
