First of all. Nice job. Takes time and well, more time...lol Also takes a lot of grinder control or shall I say finnesse.

Real tough to see from the pic, but how did you finish those intake ports? Smooth, rough???
Are those the heads the one's already on your engine?

I actually didnt use the carbide bits I did mine with the sanding rolls or "tootsies" I tried the carbide bits before the get crazy and cut quick.

Grinder control was tought to get right at first but I caught on quickly, the intake ports are roughed where as the exhuasts are polished smooth
