I remember back in the day someone had port and polished their engine... Does anyone know if there is much gain on the 7afe? Im thinking about getting a junkyard head and giving a shot at it from what I understand dremel tool is the tool of choice for this. Thats means nearly everyone has the tools for it >>

i think it was Evilspeed, who posted up pics of him porting and polishing his joint with a dremel.

I would if I dint have to change wiring, I wana keep the car so i can swap in the old engine if something goes wrong... this is the only car I will have to go to college and back and I believe it takes a fair bit of rewiring to change the head?

I like the smell of the challenge don’t you Daniel? I know it may not be the most rational to build a massive hp engine, but that’s not my goal. My goal is to build a much faster version of my car with the ability to swap in my stock engine for va's hellish emissions ect.
