I'm out looking for a new machinist. Someone who has ***** to blend the bowls. This should not be hard for someone in that profession, unless laziness is a factor or the need for a bigger job.

I personally would just run them if you don't have the time or $$ to invest in cnc porting. There's people out there with the knowledge and tools that hand port heads also but still not cheap. Check out some of the youtube videos from HeadFlowInc it's pretty good stuff.

Good decision , if they will not , it's something you can do yourself not to difficult .I can recommend the tools I would use . Here is an excellent link to a thread on what can be done with 862 heads on a budget with pics. https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...tml?styleid=32

Budget and Hot Roding is a oxymoron and shouldn't be used in the same sentence! LOL!! Most of the time I have found if I'm patient and wait a few more weeks to buy the correct (More expensive) parts I'm happier with the result and don't have to re-do it at a later date when funds allow. Just something to ponder..
