Re: 993 Valve Guide Repair Cost
I think I'd estimate around $5k. Don't forget to have the SAI (Secondary Air Injection) ports cleaned and/or enlarged too, so the Check Engine Light doesn't come on too soon.
Steve W. at www.rennsportsystems.com is a great resource, but you'd have to mail your heads to him in Oregon...

Re: 993 Valve Guide Repair Cost
I would suggest finding someone with actual prior experience rebuilding a 993 engine. A lot of places subcontract the work out (and pretend otherwise 
) but luckily in Connecticut you have a large number of shops with genuine experience taking apart the model 993. Two of the best are;
Automobile Associates
Albany Turnpike
Canton, CT 06019
860 693 0278
Hairy Dog Grrrage
Daniel Jacobs LLC
115 Hurley Road, 6A
Oxford, CT 06478
Tel. (203) 262-0569
Depending on where you live you might also want to check out the Connecticut Valley Porsche Club of America for the location of other shops.

$5k??
My 993 dream is disappearing
Well, that would include a full valve job, not just the guides. This should not need to be done very often. Lots of 993's have well over 100k miles and burn no oil - guides are just fine...
Of course, if you find a car with aftermarket guides already done, this will likely never need to be repeated.
Ok I fell a little better now.
