Get carbide burrs to do most of the port work and sanding rolls to clean up. The carbide burrs will eat through the iron very fast. The exhaust is easy, just bolt up and old gasket and match it.

I personally didn't screw with the intake other than just a bit of smoothing since it already is close to matching my GT-40 lower. I had bigger valves put in, so my buddy at the maching shop cut the seats and cleaned up the bowls a bit.

I saved a ton of money and the labor I didn't mind. I don't race, but my cars pulls damn hard all the way to the red line and makes a ton of torque down low!
