Porting

[Robert Harris]

Opening up your chamber to lower compression will raise your ping, knock,
detonation levels to self destruct and in general cost you power and
economy - but what the heck do I know anyway.

I know this is off topic for DIY_EFI, but there are many knowledgeable
people here...

Are there any good books on porting heads? I read the SA tutorial on the
web, but would like more details. I'm picking up a set of complete vette
heads for my 305, and am planning on opening the compustion chamber up
(to lower compression for the turbos) and the usual short side radius
work etc. Please email me privately if you know books, or have done this
before and can give me tips. TIA!

PS-for the necessary content, I should have the DFI any day now :)
