    Default DIY Head porting / smoothing

    All right getting ready to throw up custom grind bump stick in my 84 GT Turbo. I'm wondering is it really work me pulling the head off to do this. La3 and 35 lb injectors in the big vein air meter and a manual boost e. 3 in exhaust from the turbo downpipe all the way out the ass. I'm just debating on if it's worth it or not. I used to be posted on here like crazy and kind of lost interest in the car so it was either buy a new top because it's a ragtop or put a little money in the gogo Department. So bands I only drive it in the summertime new top is not as high on the priority list. LOL
    I would rather be juged by 12 than carried by 6

    I'm not sure if porting a 2.3 head is something you want to tackle. Especially when you have guys like Steve schlodes and boport in the game. Are the gains worth having it ported, my seat of the pants says yes. Do I have the dyno to prove, not yet. I will say that my 2st motor with all the bolt on goodies you talk about plus all ported top end at 10psi feels as strong as my 1st motor with all the same mods minus the porting at 16psi. The 1st motor thumped out 205rwhp and 266ftlbs at 3k... Dyno graphs and build threads are in my signature.
    If you blink at the end of the straight away you'll miss the twisties and what fun would that be!
