I used to set up and operate one of those CNC porting machine. Great Stuff cuts back time and its very precise and accurate.

very nice and that's the same Centroid I've been researching to get.
How do you guys like it? how's the interface? and what did you guys use to write the code? did you just have it probe a hand ported head?

The cnc work is done out of house. We were lucky enough to find a very experienced and professional shop to do this work for us. Unfortunatly we dont operate the machine so we are not to sure about the interface, coding etc. Sorry guys.

Do you provide a template for the intake manifold for gasket matching the CNC head? I'm going to be sending my manifold out to be ported and want to make sure it aligns perfectly for when I install it on my CNC head.
