You go first :P Ived one dozens of P&P heads, takes between 25 and 70 hours depending on style and intended use. But heck, if I could give it a good  extrude hone  in 10 minutes myself, why not?!

I really like this response

"The problem is, you did it wrong. You gotta do the fuel system sand blasting treatment first. 25lbs in the gas tank, and THEN 25 lbs through the intake.......... DUH."

I wonder if he took the Honda tuners advice on this one too. That's awesome! This is the kinda stuff that keeps engine rebuilders busy!

Listen guys, anyone can do it... I did! used a 1" bit for the polishing.... no special tools.

The trick I found was to let the bleeding from the new port in my head stop before polishing... keeps the blood and brains off the carpet!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
