Default Port and Polish, which company do you think is best...

Porting and Polishing a head is a serious job, and should only be done by the most experience professionals, in my opinion. I have broken down to what I consider might be the top 4 pnp companies in the states, which would you choose? and if none of them, who?

Portflow
http://www.portflow.com

JG Enginedynamics
http://www.jgenginedynamics.com/cylinderheads

DPR East
http://www.pure-tuning.com/pag...s.htm

Erick's Racing / Alaniz Technologies
http://www.alaniztechnologies.....html

so whats your opinion?

I've had several Port Flow heads and I've been happy with all of them.

I use to have my heads done at PYR when he was in Long Beach years ago but I'm happy with Port Flow now.

Seeing that Dan Paramore trained Erick and Portflow when they where his employes and taught them everything they know about porting I will recommend DPR. Doesn't seem like much of a choice to me.

When you say save you money, does that mean that you dont think its worth it?

instead of your really nice pp job for 800 i can think of many other ways i would spend the money, im only talking about NA mind you. i dont know much about pp turbo stuff. comparatively i dont think its worth it unless your motor is crucially built and you have bank.

actually you are ***-backwards. You don`t need headwork on a boosted car til it`s fairly extreme. On a decent NA setup it`s invaluable.
