Default DIY Porting?

Anyone ever port and polish a head by themselves? Tips?

My friend is telling me to do it to this B18B head I have.

Bad idea?

very bad idea. you need a flow bench to test it so you are flowing the exact same CFM's on each cylinder. and you would prolly want to polish it afterwards. best to pay a shop to do it.
