Although most of the orders for the new heads have been for out of the box units there are a number of people who have asked for them to be shipped with port work done. There have been enough infact, that it will be difficult for us to supply them in time for this years racing if we continue to hand port them.

For that reason we are going to have them CNC ported. About 40-50 hours have been spent porting an upper and lower port along with an exhaust port and chambers. This has allowed us to spend more development time on the ports than would be possible on a head to head basis. The head has been delivered to the shop that will do the porting and they will be starting on the fixture, then capturing data from the head we provided.

The final cost will likely be less than the cost to hand port with quicker delivery time.

Let me know if you are interested since we may need to do up to 10 pairs to keep the price in line.
