The head is ready for the machine shop

Cleanup porting is done and all of my parts are here. Next step is to CC the chambers so I know how much has been milled off, and then the valve job.

Are you going to do the port divider modification?

"...The head is ready for the machine shop…"

did you DIY the unshrouded valves, or use machinist & are scheduling a return 'visit'/?
what equp. was used if DYI?

HI, so far done in the driveway, I used a carbide burr in the die grinder first and then a porting kit with cartridge rolls from Eastwood. I have an exhaust port divider to weld in. Thanks.

WoW, that's alota meat to take off by hand!

U Go B Ron!
Thanks for the reply ~

I spent about 50 hours on my 250 headwork. Took lots of material off. To do it right for maximum flow that's what it takes.

thnxs hotrod.

There is a point of over-doing too.

@ some point (after alot more knowlege) I will tackel my
"M" head. I've seen a few examples on here and this is my 1 source
for any thing abt this process - due to the pic. I see books, listen to
(non ford 6 ) guys w/experience, use the Handbook & now thnx to
Perry (& others?) I can cont. 2 peruse CI. But folks like B Ron, Seth,
CNC, who put up pic & respond to Qs I'll get there in the not too distant future.
They helped me do a carb rebuild (something I'd never have taken on) that
helped me cont. w/an income & soon I can step up to this...

Hi, I just have about 4 or5 hours into it. This is light clean up. I'll look at it again after the new guides are in.

"...about 4 or5 hours into it…"
Mmm, mm, mmm, that gives these ol arthritic hands some hope.
I imagined 4 or 5 times that amount.
Thanks agin!
