streetport idle

what kind of an idle does a street port have. im just wondering what the actual characteristics are. im not sure, but im thinking my engine has been replaced and im thinking it might possibly have a street port. it kinda sputters at idle. smooth, but a slight sputter. also, i did the pcv elim. and used an inline fuel filter to run from the crankcase to the pri. tid (i saw it on rob robinettes sight) and i was cleaning it today. there was a creamy deposit left in it. almost the same color as eggnog. very creamy. just wondering if anybody knows what it might be. thanks.

what do you gain by street porting your engine? I take it people get this done when they blow their motor and the case is split?

has the idle change? if so then it probably isn't the porting. Has it had the engien replaced?

I have a streetport and at 720rpm it rumbles, but at 950 it is smooth.

if it it s streetport the stumbles shoudl be consistent, not intermittent.
