I have seen first hand a ported stage 2 cylinder head from one of the big shops. I was surprised with the results I spied, when examining this head.
It appeared as if the porter just went in there and knocked the casting smooth and did minimal port work.:aiwebs_029:
This left me wondering... What could someone do with a head in a racing only application? ? ?
I have been tinkering with a cylinder head and the ports I'm leaving behind are pretty dang exciting to look at! LOL LOL
Just wondering - does anyone still run a stocker virgin head in a racing application? Untouched in the ports is what I mean...... It could be O-ringed, my concern is the ports and bowl area.
I'll bet the boost numbers are high in that type of application.:ugh:
Again I am referring to RACE ONLY applications. . . . .
Street applications warrant a entirely different approach on port work, there's coolant passages that must be avoided on weakening the walls that separate the port from the coolant passages in the structure of the head.
It'll be interesting to see how this head performs......
:evil :woohoo: :woohoo: :evil
