My ex used to tell me everything was my fault. So I thought about that and came up with a reply that used to drive her nuts....
Kathy: This is ALL YOUR FAULT
Me: Yes its all my fault, EVERYTHING is my fault!! I am fully responsible for ALL OF IT!! And since the only entity with that much responsibility is GOD, you need to get down on your knees and worship me NOW!!
(Disclaimer) This may be part of the reason she is my ex.....

Sweet new Intakes!
heads are being ported and intakes also, then valve jobs... then moving forward....
Still deciding pros and cons solid VS hydraulic lifters and if cost is worth changing..

id bet 40-50 hp gain with new intakes and port work. Most importantly your not going to continue slinging cam dust everywhere throughout and you'll have a good stable valvetrain. You have to make the decision on cam however I'd really consider going solid roller. It's always nice to know valves are open when there suppose to. Just my opinion but I hate hyd lifters. Did you inspect your roller bearings and clean. Time consuming I know but if you do use them I'd be a little concerned about cam lobe residue. May sound overly cautious I know but no need to take a chance. Less agressive lobe hyd will be fine I'm sure. I just have a personal preference and don't like to second question a valves position at a given moment. Keep us informed what cam you go with. No secrets now!!!
