Head porting opinion w/ pics
I rebuilt the engine in my vette. Figure i'd hop it up a bit.. Had a spare cam laying around, 224/224 .581/.581 112 and messed with the heads a little. I know you probably cant tell much by a pic how it flows... but just wanted some opinions if it looks like it might be ok or how much it will help or kill it. The car is a daily driver and I dont really care what it does....it will never have a sticky tire on it anyway.
Basically all I did was knock down the valve guide boss and smooth around them, the swirl ramp on the intake side is still there, just smoothed out a bit. The rocker boss in the intake is gone also. Stock valve seats, valves, didnt touch the floors except smothing them a bit.
I dont see a point in polishing them or fine sanding...
Anyone think there will be an improvement over stock or did trash them?

Looks pretty damn good. I'd work on the exhaust ports enough to get that casting ridge smoothed out but that is my preferance. You will gain a lot if you get bigger valves and valve job or at least a valve job on the stock valves.
