Absolutely. Been doing it for years, and started off with a education from the University of Northwest Ohio.

Coming shortly is the results from the LS1 port. I went for a ride in it the other day, and the seat of the pants dyno looks very nice.

Throttle bodies are a same day affair. The heads have a broad range of prices depending on what you want done. You, the head and myself have to have a meeting to figure outs whats gonna be the best route, and then how much time it will take.

You’d better stop by with the parts so we can go over all the options that come with porting heads. You can go from any where from budget, to pricey. Depending on how much time is needed.

you wanna do a light clean up on the ports of a set of 3800 heads? The stock cam is staying so there’s no need to go full out.

I found a great link for home ported L67 heads too but I don’t have the tools or experience to go about on a set of heads. I’ve done blower cases, intakes and exhaust manifolds before but heads are too far out of my league

The intake is pretty close to being done. I just need to put the electronics on it. Are you going to up the valve size? I’ll port heads for $50 an hour. Could probably have some pretty nice work completed in 4-5 hours.
