Build sheet looks like a good budget rebuild. Only question I have is the lift of the camshaft. A stock vortec head can only support a lift up to around .450 max. After all of the maching of the guide's, and spring seats, you might be money ahead with aftermarket, plus they flow better. The vortec is an excellant head, but cannot support much cam in stock shape.

yea they will have to be machined or just find something different i figured it up im at about $630 or so
-
Although I don't remember the exact amount of lift I know vortech heads can handle a mild cam.
