skylinecouple Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Just wandering why you didn`t try abrasive porting? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/162093-for-the-lovers-of-fine-port/#findComment-3010759 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiper the Fox Posted March 28, 2007 Author Share Posted March 28, 2007 Just wandering why you didn`t try abrasive porting? abrasive porting sometimes removes material you dont want removed and doesnt remove material you want to. the guy who did this work is the head mechanic for a Top Alcohol Dragster team...a much sought after porter who does not accept any public work...i was very lucky to have been able to have him perform work for us. BTW he charges accordingly...this sort of work is very expensive.

Beer Baron Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 the heads on so no chamber pics. Slightly modified and heavily polished im told. no worries. I was just wondering what they did about the quench areas etc. it certainly looks like a nice job from the knife edge on those ports though!

rev210 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Thats an excellent porting job. The guys who do this well have a very good eye. I can see how symetrical the porting is, it is still a process that involves an artists skill. My porting work in the past looks like a pre-schoolers effort by comparison.
