Depends on how much porting you want done...if just a clean up of the runners, matching and doing the bowls it'll be around 150 to 300 if you go all out and have them done it can run as much as a 1000 for CNC'd with all the runners completely opened up and flowed to the same numbers. On top of those first figures you also will need to add in a valve job.

even the best porter will touch the seats everyonce in awhile when they are blending it all in, to do the bowls properly you have to remove material all the way to the 60* angle of the valve job.
