comment re post 30:
I think it's pic 180 (exhaust) where there could be some polishing needed. 185 shows the intake where you want some roughness (turbulance) to keep the fuel/air mixed.

Pics are nice. It looks like it's ready to get to work and give you some fun time. Did he give you a mileage or hour point for clearance recheck?

EMS What did you end up paying to get the valves done? About to order the 351 kit but need to get my valves replaced too. Last time I reshimed they where almost to the limit to not be able to do it again.
