Ah... Good for you. Any plans to perform some port work? If so, could you document your process?

Thanks

I'm not familiar with that name. I take it that he's a talented engine builder? Do you think that you could take some before & after pictures of the port work? I've seen one modified FT Ascot head. It was a beautiful piece of work. Supposedly the bottle neck is the actual entrance of the intake port. On the head that I examined, they had welded a larger diameter spigot type of mount to the heads intake port entrance & then opened the port accordingly.

Are you considering a higher performance camshaft? Those needle bearing camshafts from MegaCycleCams look to be real trick!

How about bore size & compression?

J.
