no, actual porting bits, but i'm using a air die grinder instead of a electric, so its slow going But just incase you didn't know, profesional head porters like exospeed spend up to 70 hours on a head.

you really think its bullshit, for a complete head build, combustion camber welding, everything. ok 70 hours might be more for like some v8 heads. But alot of guys spend atleast 30 hours on a honda head.

I love these headporters who claim to take a week to port a head. While they have huge shops/race cars/ and nice tow vehicles sure. Make it 4 not 40.

I would port match it. Sucks its welded up though.

I would separate the exhaust housing from the center section and then just flush it out with water after your done. That way you can go nuts and have the assurance that you can clean it out afterward. Then just bolt it back together.
