Enlarging PRP doesn't always help

20 years ago I read a post by Darin Morgan, I think on speedtalk where he said he never leaves a belly on his short turn. This really got to me, and at the time I was getting help with some of my porting from Larry Meaux. I would send him photos, air speed data, and area at particular points in the ports and he would lead me in a direction but never tell me much more than that.
One thing Larry did lay out for me was how important the valve job is on a port that is way too fast. So now if I have a problem with the port, I make sure the area is where I want it and go from there.

The ONE most important thing I've learned in my 34 years porting is that you have to correlate flow bench findings with engine power...in other words if you gain on the flow bench (anywhere) you better gain on the dyno. If not, you have to learn what the flow bench is telling you...and never forget we modify heads for POWER not flow numbers. I can tell you a bunch of my sb mopar heads that make good power are considered too fast by some. Yes I've slowed them down, and never picked up any power. It's not a sb chevy!!
