porting cost?

Porting sucks-the only reason I learned was I was in the same boat as you and couldnt afford to have someone do it,but I knew it was the only way to big power.So with the help of a lot of people and alot of careful cutting I managed a very nice flowing set of heads-it took about 50 hr.s the first time.Ive done a few sets since and Im more efficient but theres a reason porting is expensive and I tell my machinist all the time I wouldnt want to have to do it everyday-even getting paid.
