Guys, it ain't rocket science...It's just an hr or two with a die grinder and a little epoxy. Believe it or not, I'm not exagerating...Polish or an extra fine finish will not net any better results than a 120 grit die grinder finish. So long that the port-work is fairly uniform that is...It's a very easy/quick job to do at home with simple hand tools and a die grinder-not much more than common sense required. We did anything you could possibly do to them and bench tested it all a couple yrs ago. Just something to keep in the back of your heads when shopping around, the work is not worth more than $100 if you provide the core. Now, if they were overbored, that'd be a completely different story...
