The port looks a bit rough. You're going to smooth that out, right?

I think you should match it a bit more..... exhaust port is just as important as the intake because it is subjected to gases with higher velocity, every turbulent area is going to make some difference. That and I wouldn't personally wouldn't give my own engine the stamp of approval unless its perfectly done. But thats me

I know I got to get back in and clean it up blah blah..

I was thinking of using the barrel sander for the exhast..to clean it up some,

What do you think on the intake ports,I was gonan polish it to a mirror finish but not sure if this willhurt me or just use like a wire brush inside after i polish it.
