Hi Tom,
When it comes to tools such as valve seat cutters I would always buy well engineered quality such as Neway. They sell single and double sided heads so you could do the throat and seat then finish the top angle by hand. Or just do a single angle if your not trying to improve flow but as you have gone to the trouble of doing some port work you might as well help round the valves as well.
Yes more expensive that Chinese imports but as in everything you get what you pay for. I gave up on Chinese eBay tools thinking they could not be too bad but regreted it every time so no more! We also need to look at the bigger picture and support engineering/manufacturing nearer home and preferably in the UK if at all possible.
