Update!! Cyl Head Arrived

Gotta tell you guys, couldn't take photos of it cause I was on my lunch hour and was in a hurry but will take the following pics once I get home:

1-Intake ports (with the intake manifold gasket) for you guys to compare before and after the porting
2-Exhaust ports (with the exhaust manifold gasket) for you guys to compare before and after the porting
3-Combustion Chambers
4-dissasembled head
5- Bronze valve guides (not in head) they arrived yesterday too

 

OK first of all thanks to all of you watching and supporting this thread , so I got home and took some pics
This is the head straight out of the box





Got into the kitchen to grab a couple of HOt Pockets hehehe and got bored and started to disassemble it.

Started with the rockers



Then the Camshaft



BOth parts removed:





Already disassembled I took some measurements of the intake and exhaust ports to compare before and after the porting step

Exhaust ports ALL measured 1-1/2 inches in DIAMETER and they will be enlarged to 1-3/4 inches below a photo of the exhaust ports



NOw the INTAKE ports measured horizontally 2-3/8 inches and vertically 1- 3/16 inches they will be enlarged yo to the gasket size. Below a photo of the intake ports with their gasket.



The other modification that I will do to the intake port is knife edging the intake valves port division , that's the one in the middle of this picture , this will be done to improve gas velocity and reduce turbulence.




Now it's time for me to eat some pizza and start dissasembling the valves to take the head tomorrow to the porting guys ... Will take some pics of course what kind of guy you think I am hehehe LoL

 

lol nice.... go for gold migue, go for NA raw power!

 

WIll also send the cam tomorrow for regrinding

There are only two exhaust valves left to remove once that's done will take some more pics

 

Dude man, sounds awesome! Cant wait for the results!

 

Well took the valves along with springs out here are the pics







The cam will ship out tomorrow to do the regrinding of the high lobe hehehe this is getting as I planned it
