port & polish
 

does anyone know how much a port & polish runs $ wise?

RE: port & polish
 

Anywhere from $500-$800 depending on the shop but make sure you bring it to a reputable shop though. If the shop doesn't do it right, it could be a major headache.

Thanks for the info... I am looking into getting this done is it something i should do is it worth that 5 to 8 hundred$ ?

RE: port & polish
 

you will definately feel the difference... its just like getting a bigger motor...

RE: port & polish
 

port and polishing the head makes the biggest difference when aftermarket cams, high comp pistons come into play as well as forced induction. IMO well worth the money in the long run.
