but can't argue that portflow is really good, too... i just happened to be really close to Joe, and one of my friends knew him personally.

You can't go wrong with any of the three mentioned: Portflow, Alaniz or DPR. I would have a well thought out plan of what mods you wanna use also. These guys will ask you what your plans/mods will be. I think Topspeed in Naples can do it for you also. Ask some of the FL guys/Mike K.. Good luck..

just out of curiosity, what type of gains can be expected from a full port/polish leaving all internals stock... i'm sure that with a full valvetrain and high comp the hp can really be incresed though.

I can't necessarily say that Alaniz is worth the extra money over someone like Portflow, but Joe spent a ton of time with me on the phone talking over what I wanted to do - he called surprisingly often to update me on the status - I'd definitely carry more work back to him.

Tom is one of the Nicest and Best people in the business, Very Knowledgable about what he does. You can't go wrong with PortFlow

Re: Where to get Head ported and polished? (Mike M)
How much hp can be gained by port and polish with stock internals. I called portflow guy on the phone gave no info and was very rude. He said they cant even look at until 4-6 weeks. I cant make an appointment and my guess is better than his when i asked him how much hp.

your numbers will vary on what type of port/polish you get (race only/street setup/clean up of head), how much you mill it (if you do that at all), and your modifications.
