Default Ported Fast 102 worth it?

My 408 is coming together and I was wondering if anyone has tested a stock LSXR vs a ported one on a stroker. I plan on just buying an LSXR and throwing it on, but I'm gonna highly consider buying the Mamo one if the gains are gonna be worth it. I've only been able to find Rod mod LS3s vs Ported FASTs and they're not showing any gains for the most part, but I know cathedral . Any input is appreciated.

Motor has PRC 247s and cam is gonna be neighborhood of low 240s on the intake. I know the porting is gonna gain some, but 10hp for $750 is gonna be a hard pill to swallow.

On a stroker I'd imagine you'd see 10-15 hp by porting.

They are not hard to port yourself.

More Beneficial and Optimal on Bigger Cube 408 and with PRC 247s... I would for those 2 reasons.
