does anyone know of a place in Dallas or Austin that works on type 4 heads and doesn't charge an arm and a leg... the only place I've found wants 500 to do both! or is this just the standard charge when you say "hi, I have a 914 and I need the valves grinded..." I have a burnt valve(I think) and I want to go ahead and replace the valve seats if they aren't too back breaking
