Give Richard a call at West Coast Cylinder Heads. His heads are perfect! He's been doing them for the last 18 months.

I have no idea where that comment came from but Richard at WCCH sectioned a head before doing any porting to make sure of all the casting thicknesses. He did'nt just start carving metal away.

WCCH. Best L92s out there right now.
As for the bottom of the spring pocket, WCCH doesnt touch em. I got pictures of their intake ports.
There are some hand ported heads out there by a well known porter that have them removed. Wont post his name. If anyone wants to know, pm me.
