Some cylinder head porting I’ve started on the spare set of heads I bought ages ago. Need to get a spigoted punch made up to get the old valve guides out so I can finish them up.

I’ll clean up around the guide once it’s been removed.

This was the first exhaust valve guide I tried to remove which was an epic fail. Hopefully I can get it out without buggering anything. I’m thinking slow and careful use of a chainsaw file might save it.

Still can open the exhaust up some more but need to buy a new gasket to make sure everything is matched up

Planning to get one head done. Then jerry rig up some sort of flow bench to see if I can figure out if things have improved and make sure all are reasonably balanced.

Might do some more on them this weekend since it’s raining
