Dont mess with Harbor Freight on this stuff to expensive believe it or not. This is where I get my stuff Cylinder Head Supply , they have pretty much every thing you will need ,good price and good product. http://www.cylinderheadsupply.com/po...polishing.html , Jegs and Summit also have port and polish kits but CHS is better. Start with 80 and move up from there. Good luck and post up pics of your progress.

I actually used the small rolls that come with the dremel kits. It might have taken 2 of them?

The plastic is very easy to remove.

For heads I've gotten long shank burrs off eBay. For sanding
I just made my own spindle out of 1/4" rod, cut a lengthwise
slit in it with a Dremel cutoff wheel, and I tuck a strip of
plumber's roll in there and wrap it up.
