Re: P&P question
I do porting, polishing and combustion chamber modifications (and build headers, turbo kits etc etc)...
^^^These are some 3500 60* heads.
You can try to port them, but without a flowbench it's like running through the woods with a blindfold on.
I would suggest what some of the others have said and gasket match, then blend the entrance back into the port, and finishing it up by sanding to remove casting marks/seems. Anything before the injectors can be a mirror finish, after don't go any higher then 180-220 grit. Match the intake manifolds to the same gaskets (and mark everything because gaskets can be slightly different from one another). The exhaust ports can also be a mirror finish.
Helps to remove the valves, and try to use some junk ones while grinding to avoid hitting the seats/guides.
Please post results/progress.
