Ported Head/Intake? Crappy Pics
So I was changing my intake manifold gasket out for a Password JDM spacer/gasket and noticed that the intake runners seemed to have been smoothed out. There were no rough casting marks that I could see. I looked at the head and the bridge in the intake ports felt like they had a nice edge on them. Similarly, they too had no rough casting. Car is a Second Gen JDM B16A. I compared my manifold to my brother's '88 Prelude and it was obvious somebody had done something to my motor. What I'm wondering is, is my head ported? Or did somebody simply get adventurous with a Dremel tool at some point in time? I'm attaching some pics I snapped with my phone. They really suck, but maybe somebody can shed some light?
The intake runner pics are hard to tell because they are dirty. Sorry about the crappy pic quality!
*EDIT* WOW, I'm not sure why these pics are so big!

dang those pics are crap.
but they definetly look ported. you can tell by where the valve guide area. and the walls. its still shiny.
and the intake mani is matched because between the opening and the actual sides there isnt much room anymore.
and dont compare it to a completey diff motor and car.
