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?

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
