So ive decided I want to have my head ported and polished. Though I have no experience in how this is done what-so-ever. I am looking to learn doing a lot of "googling" at the moment but i just wondered if any of you guys had or knew of any good resources, or methods. Such as tools used, would you DIY this or take it to a shop, etc.

The usual over opinionated and under informative comments are always welcome

 

Take it to a shop. You need special tools to get this done.

 

you do not need special tools...just dremel tool ....If you are a newb though i would NOT recommend doing this yourself....

 

id take it to a shop man unless you understand that you can screw a head up very quickly and make it flow like @ss

 

I work for an auto parts store. Most people do not own an air compressor or dremel tool, therefore I label them as "special" tools. Next time I will clarify.

 

Well, i have read a lot about it im just looking for the thread i found that had A LOT of useful links...

All i need is 2 heads, one to play with, and if so throw away...

You never know if you can do something until you try...

For those "if your a noob, don't do it comments" How many things have you tried that you have never done before???

EDIT: Found the link, good reading, if you have the time.... http://www.d-series.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2376

EDIT2: I think i will try this i dont agree with everything he suggests but a nice guideline with pics haha

 

Plenty. But in this case, I never had 2 heads or intake manifolds to fool around with.

 

if you got an extra head just set aside a day or two and practice.

 

yeh, i think that is what im going to do next weekend, then go have both of them flow tested and see if i failed miserably, or if its worthy of riding on the civic

 

make sure you flow test them before and after, might be kind of hard to find flow numbers floating around
