Engine Rebuild Questions

stevedMember

The motor in 6966 is tired and burning some oil so I am planning an overhaul/upgrade. I have acquired a set of DOAE 4v heads and am now intending a build up following sticky3 with GTS exhaust,blue thunder intake and maybe a 505 cam. I would like to get started by having the heads rebuilt with new valves etc. and need recommendations for a machine shop/builder in SoCal. Is Valley Head Service a good choice? If possible, I would like to use the same shop for the short block build as well but that will probably be next winter.
Also,when I take the heads in,should I have already purchased valves,springs et al or do I buy them from the machine shop?
Thanks in advance,Steve
