That's what my Mechanic will do when I get my new '12 SE Ultra in one month.
He will clean the ports and mill the heads to get around 10:1 compression, along with Fullsac X headpipe, SE Fatshotz mufflers, Woods TW5 cam and tune.
I will first drive the bike stock for 600 miles, Dyno, do the mods and Dyno again for a before and after comparo.
My goal is for max torque with good HP.

Contact the owner of www.grandlight.com, and get his take on where to send the heads, and what cam he is running.

Curious citation there.  Why is the owner of a light bulb company now the go to source for recommendations on engine work?

  You can get your heads reworked at DME in Ventura, California. They do some of the best work in the area.  You can also get your cams from them and should you talk to Dave, he will be happy to make recommendations on which cam he feels is best to use with the reworked heads....Not a cheap deal but nothing is these  days

Not quite sure he is the "go to" source.
He does run one of our combinations, and alerted us to feel free to have anyone contact him in regards.

So all happy customers, whether or not they understand with any degree of insight why they are happy, are now sources offered and suggested for others to base their own decisions on.  That's pretty f*^%#g lame. 

Pitch your work and explain why its good.  If that's not enough you really think what a light bulb guy says should make the difference?  Really?

Around here there are other non-motorcycle professionals whose insights we know to be worth heed.  Guys who have proved over time and repetitively they're worth a listen.  I'm sorry, but some light bulb guy who wrote a vendor a check hasn't yet earned that distinction.
