Best head porter
I have a set of 243 heads that I want to get cnc'd. Where is the best place? AI? TEA? TSP? Anywhere that I didn't list? I am just looking for opinions on who you think does the best job at porting heads.

What's your price range? AI, TEA, WCCH, Flowtech Induction, Livernois, etc. will all do a great job and you can see great results from each of those companies ported heads. Reason I ask about price range is because Tony Mamo's head porting is going to be a lot more than the above listed.

Says you live in OK, I'd look @ porters closer to where you live.
Texas has a few well known head porters that do good LS work.
For cathedral GM heads once you get into the higher priced porting sometimes it's worth considering selling the GM heads & putting the money towards a set of as cast heads.

Id Look into the TSP porting. For 1229.99 for Stage 2.5 portwork with new valves and a spring kit its a solid price. The reason for most places wanting customers to send in their 243 castings is the fact that you cant get new GM ls6 heads anymore.

If you don't want to ship the heads to California to Tony Mamo I would see if Greg Good was floating around. After all his ported 243 heads have went 10.0s in the quarter on 408ci.

Thanks guys! And I would like to keep it around 1k. Definitely not over 1500 because as stated, I could just save a little longer and get some great heads and sell the 243's as well. I seen on Texas Speed that I can send in my 243's and get their 2.5 stage porting done for $950. Is there anyone that runs these successfully? With bolt-ons and cam?
