Are there any recommendations for shops where I can purchase some used hi performance heads, ie. GT40P etc? South bay would be perferable. Also, any shops that do good honest work are also welcome. Thanks...

auction block on the corral, as for installers, any competent mechanic can do it, it's a basic procedure, but probably 6 hours of labor. you might be able to do it yourself too.

How much are you looking in to spending? You can get them new for $600. Are looking for an intake also? I got a new professional products I am trying to sell, it is a copy of the edelbrock RPM, Asking $375. Let me know.

I agree with the poser above... what is your buget? In most cases instead of buying a "smaller" head and paying money to have it ported, you're better off just buying the "larger" head to begin with.
