I also took a sneak peek at your spring break pics. Youre straight ballin'!

Do you notice a nice performance difference?
I'm going to be putting my 230/232 580/580 110 cam in this week, and i was told repeatedly not to have my buddy port my heads... that it could really kill the power actually...
so what kinda results do you get?

My buddy also was a former crew chief on a IHRA pro mod team and ported heads b4 that so he has some experience.
