Head work.. Am I over looking something here?

So I'm thinking that a bit of head work is next on my list of things to do. I have an extra core and have been looking to get it fully prepped for future plans of a 35r or 6262 on e85. Looking around at what the vendors here have to offer it looks like on average a basic port and polish with general clean up is anywhere from $1200-$2000+. Yet I look at the buscher head and it's $1625 with larger valves, dual springs, port/polish, Stainless o-ring etc. So unless I'm overlooking something that's one heck of a deal. So with that in mind, what's the difference in a direct comparison to buscher head to other vendors? If you don't want to post up I understand and feel free to pm me. I'm just looking to make the best use of my money. Tia.

The reason why you will encounter differences in prices is that the cheaper (price) heads are hand made whereas the more expensive heads are CNC machined. CNC machined heads obviously are exactly the same from one head to another whereas handmade heads can be off a tad from one head to another. Buschur's heads are handmade but I'm sure there will be people posting after me about how excellent their cylinder head is.
