    i port matched and did some porting on my 2.8L 89 camaro intake and heads when i rebuilt it. amazing difference, pulled way past redline and beat other v8 camaro's. my friend back in the 90's loved porting heads, same guy that would say he was "polishing turds" building cars back to stock with the wildest motor he could afford to build with hand me down parts and hours of porting. my porting friend was a long hair into rock, if he wasnt wrenching he was in his room on the bass.

    Pete great video, a buddy i use to work with , his dad owned a race engine build shop in Winnipeg called Ken's Kustom Auto and i drive old Volvo 240's, nothing exciting to you i know, i needed so head work done , i blew a head gasket, so i talked to him and just by chance he did all the warranty head work for Porsche,Audi,BMW,Volvo and Mercedes, so he was good, he took the head from my Volvo to completely redo everything on it, it had just under 130k miles on it, everything new went into it, asked if i wanted the head ports cleaned up, i said sure, he had to plane just under 2 thosounds off it, i got lucky, then asked for my intake manifold and polished it up the size between the manifold and intake port of the head were already really close, so he did that and asked if i wanted to upgrade my valve springs, i said sure and asked what is the gain, he told me right around 700 rpms at the top end, awesome, and we stuck a camshaft from the European Volvo , the sister car to mine, was like 25 to 30 hp more, i said yes, we got it all put back together which i did with his son and i was very surprised how much more freely it revved to stock, i did a break of 500 miles changed the oil checked the valve clearance only had to adjust it by 2-3 thousand, I can say it put a smile on my face , it was allot more lively from 3200 to 6900 rpms, in all i owed him for the work with parts/tax a bit under 1900.00 bucks and that included all the gaskets to, this was 2002/2003, it use to lay a 3 foot strip after this it did almost 9 feet, yes 40 and still felt like a kid,LOL, a i did need a new clutch in May of that year, these things had valves the size of a SBC to my surprise 👍

    I built up a LA360 years ago stock bottom end I match the weights for each of the rods and pistons so it was better balanced the heads i put 202 valves in intake side ported them just cleaned everything up mainly and made the ports match the gaskets intake and exhaust side and header . M1 Mopar intake match ported that too 750 DP it was 8.5 to 1 stock but I did plane the heads and block to clean them up so might of been 9.5 in the end I also put a Mopar Purple Camshaft in it too about 500 lift i cant remember what part number it was now to long ago . but everyone said it wouldn't run any good but man did it pull hard it made 425 hp from memory . i have seen so guys just buy parts and pull them together but not do anything to make the parts work together . but a little port matching and a little blending and clean up on stock parts will wakeup a stock engine if you have a few basic tools
