Porting Cylinder Heads

I just want to tell you guys that I port cylinder heads. I have fair prices too.
Been doing it for 2 years.

Hey, Lockport dude! I was going to have Precision Engine in Plainfield do mine. Where is your shop, and how can I get a hold of you? I work in Oswego, Lockport is 30 minutes away... By the way, nice screen name, Zakk Wylde rocks!

Sorry dude I should have said that I do pocket porting with a dremmel at my home. I am porting some Dart Iron Eagle Heads right now. I would imagine with those AFR heads you are going to get them CNC ported. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

ROCK ON!!!
Hope your car kicks some *** this year!!!

It should! Look for me to get booted from Rt.66 Raceway for NHRA equipment violations!

will i get much gain from a set of l98 heads with 1.94/1.6 valves and porting on the exhaust side in a 350 Z28, supercharged with 8lbs of boost, headers, and 1.6 rockers?

I'd think about upgrading those heads. I've been runnning ported L98 heads for 2 years, and they've become a bottleneck. The huffer will help, but with a good set of aftermarket heads, the difference will be amazing.

Do you flow test the heads both before & after your mods to see if you have helped or hurt the flow?
