That should rip...maybe 80!
Porting my Head
Ok guys I have an extra head for my quad actually everything but the crank to build another engine. I took the head to the shop today and bead blasted all the funk off it it looks like a new head now. I taped up the top and bottom faces so the beading wouldn't pit them.
I will be porting the head next week sometime, after I finish my homework first, I'm carrying it to a local machine shop to have it Flow tested stock so I'll know where I'm at on factory CFM specs. Then it's off to the workbench and die-grinder dremel. I have done old V-8 heads so this one should be fairly simple. there is alot of casting defects to remove on the intake side and where the intake mates to the head I can see about 1.5 to 2 mm of the head so port matching that will be first. the exhaust side is pretty much the same way but I'm only going to drum sand the port and opening to clean it and reshape the exit to match the copper exhaust bushing. I will post up some progress pics as soon as I start.

I just figured if a 300ex can hit 75... why not.
Damn, Hey you should have wore a Go pro on your head while doing it... then we could all watch!
If you just get one Ho it's not as expensive! LMAO

Good job, can't wait to see the final product.
I need to go straighten up my garage so I have room to put all of my parts that I am going to be removing.
It actually feels pretty good as of lately. It still needs to be fixed before i can ride. My dad is going to help by doing all the heavy lifting for me.
Good luck, can't wait to see.
That is REALLY crappy. Sorry, moose.
