kz1000 head porti

:woohoo: I've cut the sides of the guides and bosses. I opened the area around each valve on each side. I opened and blended the intake openings for bigger carbs. Now I'm looking into the intake ports at point where the guide boss seperates the air stream left or right toward the valve. The best intake charge amount is achieved by 1. Conturing the port so that the majority of the air passes on the outside turn into the intake port? 2 does the air speed need to be slowed? 3 does it need to be increased? Same questions for the inside turn of the port? All I know is how it takes that turn is important and needs to be controlled. I think I've done a very nice job on all the rest of the porting. I'd send it to Larry if He'd flow it for free and post it. I'm not saying it will be fantastic but My goal is to get one to flow as close to a gpz. I figured you'd have to remove some material and where it freed hp and you'd be close. It's just the air speed that My mind can't estimate. I have no prior porting experience but I've blown through a hose or two so I got the general idea. I'm interested now how many tricks pop out of the forum. Maybe we havn't gotten to where it's a pay only subject. I'd like not to waste my time and for that I can only rely on some sly folks that know what makes a good charge. I'm shaving this head too it's getting ready for 33's someday. When my base gasket finishes pounding out I'll throw it on the 1015cc. Base gasket does not leak but it has to one day. I'm the kind of person that likes to do all my work now. Then I don't have stuff sitting on the shelf, needing cleaned and prepped and evthing. If it isn't ready to rock your two steps behind.

I'm asking this forum to port my head :woohoo:

Dude.... Hog that Thing Out ! ! Leave no Aluminum "Un-ground"... Sink those Valves Down, Out To The Evil Edge Yo.... Bore & Blend those Valve Throats to 87-88% of the Valve Size Dawg ! ! ! See No Evo, Hear No Evo, Ride No Evo.... Friends don't let Friends drive Hyundai Accents, unless it has a 125 shot of NOS, yo....


Smoke On The Water.... Fire In The Sky.

Send it & I'll flow it & port map it for you. Just pay shipping Don't sell yourself short. It might just be better than you think...


see..hear..ride no Evo.....I have just the place for that

I'll send the head t you this week Larry. I'm not too good with pictures and posting them so if you feel like showing what this head looks like feel free to post pics of it. Hope I've done some good to this head. Guess I'll find out, and thanks very much for this opportunity so we can all learn something.
