here it is,

i dont know what im gonna do to the head, im not in that stage for now.

what do you think of the ports?


They look fairly good, but dont look totally matched.

There are a couple of very cheap and easy things to do to find out if the person knew what he was doing.

1. Go down to your local chemist and get a couple of syringes one thats about 20mls and one that has .1 increments which is normally about 3mls.That will cost all of $1.Then put some grease on your valves to make a water tight seal. Then it's just a matter of filling them up.They should all be the same.

2.Simple get out a rule and measure the ports.

3. Not as cheap as the first 2, but get your head flowed this will also give you a inlet to exhaust port raito. Different people have different ideas on what it should be, but you want your exhaust port to flow about 80% of your inlet. This will also help with picking a cam.

Again they dont look to bad but measure them again with the syringes.

That centre combustion chamber looks like it's been welding a little bit and the inlet seat doesnt look 100% right.(Note the little gap on the spark plug side where the inlet and exhaust seats meet)

I dont know how much work you want to put in, but you can finish the inlet with 80 grit sand paper.That will give about the perfect finish for power.However the Hp gain from a mirror finish and the perfect finish for power(A little bit rough)is only about 1% so it's not really this big myth that everyone talks about.

Where you want the mirror finish is your exhaust port if your a perfectionist the last grade of sand paper you'll use is 1200 grit.

This helps keep heat off the exhaust port and stops carbon sticking to the port.

You also want to do the same mirror finish in the combustion chamber it's self.

You'd really only do this stuff for a race car, but it still works the same on a road car.
