I'm trying to concentrate on finishing my car for shows, but I still want to do enough to my engine so it's not completely "no go." Atleast just until I can focus on swapping the engine. Anyway, I wanted to hear some feedback on anyone who's done it, or if I should even do it. Thanks.

It's always a good mod, no matter what car you are doing it on. I think whether you should do it or not all depends on how much its going to set you back. I look at porting / polishing the heads as an intake / exhaust mod. Some people have said they've gotten around 10-20 HP from this mod alone.

You sound like you know what the process is, so I won't go in depth, but you will get much better intake and exhaust flow by opening up the ports and cleaning all the sharp edges and burrs from inside your head.

If you have the money to spend on it I'd say go for it, its something I haven't done, but am looking into atm. (need to find a good engine shop nearby).
