Help with porting please
I Will be porting my rotor housings in the near future and I need some advice.
1. Will a mini die grinder and anelectric dremel be enough?
2. Exactly what bits will I need?(size/type)
3. Any other tips would also be helpfull
I will be using pineapple's templates . I've found this thread to be very helpful so far....link
Thanx in advance

If your just doing the aluminum rotor housings (exhaust ports) and your not really experianced, just stick to sanding drums rather then the usual cutting bits and/or stones. It'll be a little slower, but its hard to make a mistake (cut too far) using drums and they wont walk away from you like cutting bits do. If your doing the irons also (intake ports) well drums still work, but are really slow due to iron beeing harder to sand/cut through.
rotarygod gave good advice, watch some porting video's.
