![]() cool! you'll definately notice a good increase in power, how long did you end up spending on them? i spent about 11-12 hours doing my intake and heads with a die grinder with a carbide bit
depending on how many miles you have, now would probably be a convienient time to replace your valve springs, mine have a little over 100k on them and i shoulda replaced them when the heads were off because they are worn out and the valves float over 5300RPM ------------------ 88 Notch, B&M Ripper, 3.73's, Ported E7's, Explorer int. w/ ported lower, pulleys, 1.7RR's, BBK headers, off-road H-pipe, flowmasters, subframes, 65mm TB, March ram air ,MSD coil, U/L control arms, 155lph f/p, Crane Adj.FPR, Nitto drag radials, best 1/4--> 13.76@101.4 on a 2.17 60ft |

![]() Stang Runner, Looks nice. When you replace springs go ahead with some work on valve guides and bowls. There is alot of rough cast in these areas. I did my heads two winters ago. Takes some time but worth it. Not only do you save money but there is nothing more enjoyable then doing your own work on your pony. Great job!!

![]() Take off all the sharp edges, also do that around the hole the injector sticks down, the sharp edges will become brittle under the heat.
What grit are you using? Make sure you don't polish the intakes or the fuel will not atomize and that will cause a lot of issues. I used 180 on the intake, and 180 and 360 on the exhaust, I also finished the exhaust up with a small flapper wheel which polished them to a mirror finish, you can do that to the chambers also. It's a lot of fun. I have over 40 hours in my alum heads, port matched to my lower, polished the exhaust and chambers cleaned up the intakes really didn't do a lot of porting, just evened everything out. Mine are going to TEA this winter. Good Luck!
