I do and absolutely so. The head is no longer stock in the port. Doing a valve job, stock or fancy is fine. Sometimes it is needed. Getting a little fancy or creative on the valve job is what it is. Once you go beyond the valve job, there's only the port.
Having work done under the valve, (the bowl area) costs extra money. The idea of the thread is to see how fast you can go without spending that extra money. I don't know how much you spent on that work because it is a variable cost from shop to shop and what exactly it entails can also vary, but that cost is a cost to be avoided. Hence the threads title.
Still, it is a good combo and I'm not knocking it.
