Looks good to me, although I have no experience with that kind of work. I also had a 243 head with a dickered cylinder due to a dropped valve, kicking my self in the ass for turfing it. Would like to do mine but scared to frig it up lol.

Well life has been tough for a single father raising a 4yo baby girl by himself but I'm getting back on my port job project and figured I'd gibe a lil update. Hope to start on the intake runners tomorrow.
dont run a fast 102 behind boost. seen one flexing all over the place behind a turbo. the N/A performance of those 102 intakes is awesome, but the quality of the build is shit IMO. it literrally looked like it would blow up a little like a baloon under boost. then when you let off of the gas, it would suck in. scarry looking.

Just finished up the exhaust side. Local guy just bought a flow bench so it looks like I'm gonna have a chance to actually get some numbers on these things!

Finally got started on the intake runners, I didn't really open them up to much just removed the rocker arm stud bump, the swirl ramp, and blended the bowls. I had sand paper rolls from an actual head porting kit which mode my day a lot easier.
Don't get the finish too smooth or you'll have fuel droplets turning into streams. You need a rough finish.

Think 240 grit would leave a good finish on it?
more like 80 grit, 240 is damn near a polish on aluminum.
