318 head porting for the average joe

Me personally, I am re-doing a 440 (ICE) race engine with iron heads.
ICE automotive UK, built a iron headed 440 for my Dart back in the 80's.
It ran 9.90.s N/A on street tyres and race GAS!
I sold the car and the engine when times were tough (early 2000's), so I am doing a copy.
Rob Loreing said he would never port iron heads again (heard that before somewhere)?
But I remembered how they looked and doing a 'tongue in cheek copy'.
Raised ports approx 1/2" with a 1/2'' ali flange, lots of chemical metal and flow grooves in the floor.
Guess with the race gas it made 550hp???

In the lower picture you can see the ali flow guides Rob did for the 906 floor
