  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    yes you can do it your self

    all you need to port out a head to the fullest is a old or gaskets (this is called port matching) so you can scribe your lines for the port grinding, let me know if your goint to do this and ill tell you how to do it all the way. like i said you need old or new gaskets don't matter and a air compressor and all the stuff that goes with the die-grinder (bits, oiling tool, etc) once you have all that stuff you can go to work, and you can port more than the heads with the die-grider, you can port the intake and the header flanges.


    let me know if your interested, cause im seriously doing my heads, it saves money and you use the tool on other things, but you must be careful doing this
