I had to do for someone a Metro 1.1 that had a snapped timing belt and bent three valves . They removed the bent valves, skimmed the head, recut all the valve seats, refitted and ground in valves, supplied gasket set and super long head bolts for £120.

If you need to ask any questions they're really helpful too  8)

Well thwey cost peanuts in the scheme of things but AFAIK they can be re-used indefinitely.

They are not stretch bolt, ie the type you angle tighten, so they have no finite life, that's why there is no reference in the manual to new bolts being fitted.

If you are fitting new ones get a stud set from RPI so as not to risk stripping a thread.
