1)I did the bowls, left them a little rough simply because I have been told it helps with fuel atomization.2
2)Gave the valve guides that "tear drop look and rounded all the sharp edges.
3)Opened up and smoothed the shortside of the intake bowls.
4)Unshrouded the combustion chambers, (mainly just took off all the sharp edges and laid them back a bit.)
5)Took out as much of the chamber imperfections as possible but left it a little rough, again for fuel atomization and vaporization.
6)Have just about finished the exhaust ports, opened them up on the inside and a little bit on the outer edges, but not so much as to match the size of my exhaust manifold, "read where opening them up too much takes away from the needed reverb of a bigger exhaust manifold port so it is forced outward--(don't have a clue whether this is true or not. I will finish up with smoothing the exhaust port passages as much as possible. Then I will take it to the machinist to have what is necessary.
