balancing air on diy porting?

Hey guys,

I was thikning about porting out some cylinder heads and talking to some machine shop guys about doing it. They said the hot rod shops that do that has a machine to make sur the air flow stay equal to the other ports.

Is this true?

If so how could you make sure the flow is equal when you port the heads?

thank you:hail: :hail: :hail:
