Default who to use to machine early heads to fit later Barrels ?

Hello guys I am new here and have just started build on my 964 3.6 I have the early engine which has seen 150k so decided to rebuild it . I bought some new barrels and pistons with the head gasket ring in them for a better seal ... However I now have to machine my older style head to fit the new barrels ..... I would assume this is a common modification so I would hope to be inundated with reliable engineering firms in the uk who can help me out .
Any advice on the subject greatly received. And as this is my first post I guess I should say Hello .
Thanks

Easy to do as we've done lots of them.

I'd strongly recommend a good valve job if this hasn't been done yet.
