It will be tuned by the best and conservatively. This is my daily driver therefore I won't be going for anything crazy. As for the valves, I had a valve adjustment done 5k miles ago so I'm guessing they are still a-ok.
A valve adjustment can tell you where the end of the valve is, but it doesn't tell you where the spring retainer is. Take the advice you were given (billman has a good post on this).
