street port engine how much?

How much does it cost for a quality job or street porting? What the advantages and disadvantages of it?

it seems its about $300~ from RB (racingbeat) who are very good at what they do. advantage more power, disadvantage rough idle (if its too big of a port, but most of the times i hear people have a pretty normal idle).

$200-300 for a decent streetport on top of rebuild pricing of course.

well, if you're brave, you could do them both yourself... Neither are truly difficult, just make sure you have a pretty clear idea of what needs to be done. You can buy a rebuild kit from (for example) atkinsrotary.com for around $800 or so. You could also buy the porting templates from (for example) racingbeat.com for around $70 for the intake and exhaust templates. DO ITTT!!!

I'd also suggest a rebuild video to help you do the rebuild, perhaps rotaryaviation.com?

Porting will run 300.00. That's the average going price
