Head porting and 3 angle valve job
 

Is Head porting and 3 angle valve job really worth doin to the cylinder head?

I looked into this before i decided to turbo the bitch and yes it is but you have to be carefull where you have it done.http://www.alaniztechnologies.com/ This guy seems to be one of the guys who nows his ----.If you are not carefull who you choose to do the P&P you might end up with a head that wont flow right and that will rob you horsepower.

Mine was done at Gude. It looked pretty good. I'm not sure if it made that big of a difference since I had a Gude cam installed at the same time. If you're looking for the absolute most horsepower I would say go for it.

Gude is a reputable place. that was one of the other places i was looking but now i want bang for the buck.Im going to do something mild my self like gasket match both intake and exhauts ports and polish the ports too.I dont know if this will help but i like shiny stuff.even if i cant see it!

The Cylinder head is your powerplant basically.
Like said, be careful who you send it to, just because a shop has "experience" in P&P etc doesnt mean they are good even decent.

Dunno where you live but, sometimes shippin your head away for those extra few days is the difference in winning and losing.

they should be able to price quote you how much it would cost, they can work some miracles on Cylinder heads...just will cost you some money, and a little time.

LIke i said before if they cant provide the job with a before and after folw chart dont do it.The flow chart can be faked dont get me wrong but talk to the techs.at what ever shop you go with.Just remember that some bare foot,backyard mecanic is not the guy to trust on doing the job.

I agree entirely as well.
Take it to a known shop and get a run down on their work etc.

Check out dh-racing.com. They have been making 25-30 whp on their street heads. I have one on my built zc and it's awesome to say the least.
