Thinking about porting my own heads...

The motor is going to be apart again here soon to get the bottom end rebuilt and i was thinking about giving it a shot while i have it apart. I figure any free HP is good. I do plan on getting some worked over by AI sometime next year.

Does anyone have any advise or a write up or something?

In all honesty?

Just send them to Mr Elliot. For what he charges for just the port work you can not go wrong

Porting can be touchy. I've seen lots of amatuer botch jobs, be careful. And remember, don't lower the floor. If, you don't know what that means, have a profesional port them.

Yeah i know that much. Like i said i plan on getting some done next year. I would really like to get some free HP out of the heads since i have some time to try and port them. Im not expecting much and im not going to go crazy and port the hell out of them. Just a little something extra you know.
