Default Intake Porting

Does anyone in the DFW area do porting? I have a Super Vic I would like to have ported.

We are in Weatherford Tx and have 3 options in porting Super Vics.
A.) Port match the runners to the head
B.) Sportman port port match intake runners and light clean up inside the intake
C.) FULLRACE port port match intake runners and very heavy intake port

A) $100
B) $200
C) $300

Is that the price for those particular services? Do I need to bring one of the heads in to match it? You state "FULL RACE", its a street car that will see occasional track duties but probably more time driving to the golf course or aggravating every want-a-be Hot Rodder in the neighborhood!! Does the full race take the streetability out of it? I will be supercharging the motor in time but for now all motor.

I've seen your work, its very impressive. State of the art facility turning out some superior products and quality work. Congratulations!

I'm actually headed near your neck of the woods this Saturday to play golf. Going to play either Squaw Creek in Willow Park, Split Rail Links in Annetta or Canyon West in Weatherford. Lets meet, play and wager on the porting!!

C usually involves heavy plenum work and nowhere near the $300 range you may be looking for said work...this will be an option for someone looking for every ounce of power out of their combination. You may be better with option A or light work on Option B.....
