Here are what it cost me to have that job done (12 years ago) at a machine shop in the Baltimore, MD area. I realize you'll have to adjust for cost increases due to time, and also if more valves have to be replaced.
1 Exhaust valve $7.70 8 Valve Guides $22.48 Labor for valve job & to install valve guides $147.00
Did a major on it; parts total for sleeve assemblies, bearings, gaskets, exhaust valve, valve guides, cam gear, crank gear was $690.16.

The guy in the machine shop was impressed at the condition of the valves & that only one had to be replaced.
