Default Cleaning up some ports?

Ive got some spare parts laying around for my car and I would like to try to port match and clean up some of the ports on them. My question is what attachments and bits would I need to use on my Dremel to try this? I know that someone in here has tried this before so if you could give me a run down of the tools that you used that would be great. TIA

lots of drum sand rolls, some cartridge rolls if u can get ur hands on some for 1/8" shank, and some flap wheels.

and remember when ur porting, dont go crazy tryin to enlarge ****, u will **** it all up, stick with the simple job of cleaning it up and port matching, sometimes u can get carried away

hers a pic of my clean up port, compare it to ur stock ones and u will see the difference (if u have 56k, sux to be you!)

How do you go about cleaning up all the metal shavings when DIY ?

my intentions are not to be attacking but that port looks like crap, the devider isnt very sharp/aerodynamic. and one problem that most people make is when they port and polish their head is they start off by doing the intake and exhaust inlet/exits, when the most power coming from a port and polish can be made by working on the cyl bowl.

then i guess a stock port looks like crap, its a CLEAN UP port, meaning casting flashing and lines are gone/smoothed over, no drastic port shape/size changes, i dotn know enough about porting to be doing that, and obviously, niether do you. and if you looke, there is a bowl port

I use 80 and 240 grit rolls. 80 only on the intake and 80 followed by 240 on the exhaust.
