You can do headwork after you change out valvetrain and cams you know, right?
You can always to do the headwork/P&P/etc. at a later time after the valvetrain and cams or vise-versa. You don't have to do it all at once.
I would hope that you aren't doing any of that yourself. Especially if you don't know how to operate/have a flowbench to double check the flow of the head and everything. There are specialty tools too. I don't know how extensive everything is at your auto schoold, but I would never mess with the head or intake manifold by yourself, you would be messing with years of design. The Intake Manifold is fine for most of the power that is reached by accord owners.
Which is exactly why i won't be doing any headwork untill i can afford to go change out all the valvetrain and cam's. Plus our intake manifolds are pretty good stock. They only thing i would honestly do besides cleaning up some of the casting marks is shave down part of the runners where it comes into the plenum. If you take off the top piece of the intake mani you'll see what i'm talking about the runners continue way up into that plenum so you could free up a little flow there but it wouldn't be worth it to pay someone to do it. if you really want it done i would just do it yourself since you won't benefit too much as far as power gains go.
