acid porting a bbc 781 head
 

GUYS can some one tell me if its worth doing and why ?
Im building a gt motor with a BBC 781 O port head and they have 15hrs of hand porting done to them " buy a pro" is it still worth the money to send them out for acid porting ? who to use and who not to use?


Thanks for the Info

Change your nickname .THE SHOE HAS BEEN RETIRED.
How smart are you to ask about acid work on this public site?
You aren/t gonna cheat in STOCK ELIMINATOR?
Be carefull newbie..

I agree last set of heads I did full port to took 40+hrs a week for over 3 weeks. And Im pretty good....albeit slow, but man did they flow, they were on the chev 302 I was spinning at 10k...

Great heads, but they werent cheap, as in the trip to the doctor for the metal dust that had embedded in my lenses , superfine and in my hair, then into my eyes, the actual pain was from the metal slicing the insides of my eyelids, Now wear a hat when porting :) But I kinda like the fact you CANT in stock elim, its something I dont have to do.........Its REALLY hard to sit still when the doc comes at your eye with a magnetic needles and says "Hold Real Still" before explaining what he was going to do......he was in a hurry had a "hot lunch date" hey at least he was honest.....

Change your nickname .THE SHOE HAS BEEN RETIRED. I concur with Perrone. Its as much of a crime as asking about the "acid porting" on here.

Porting is legal in Super Stock. Check out the 2010 rule book if you don't believe this section ten page two. " Porting, polishing, welding, epoxying and acid porting permitted". So I don't see the problem asking about Acid Porting!!!!

Anthony you can call yourself whatever name you want and ask whatever question you want as this is a free site.

To those giving him crap, NICE attitude. It makes this site not very inviting nor class racing to others when people are treated this way. To those jack hole class racers out there, do you ever wonder why people think class racers are considered jerks???

When class racers say you're not bracket racers YOU ARE RIGHT, as bracket racers are a nicer bunch and more inviting to be around.

Now either answer the guys gosh damn question or don't reply if you can't help.

This doesn't apply to everyone and only to those who know who they are already.

Hey Anthony, you shouldn't have to apologize. These guys ripping you should apologize!!!! New blood, old blood, web newbie, or whatever, people need to chill and choose better battles. Manny you hit it on the head, when class racers bash someone over something stupid, they prove yet again they don't want the sport to live.

And who's cheating here anyway? Besides the acid heads with modified part numbers, battery with disguised hose bib and drain, and lightweight doors that hold nitrous bottles, my car is perfectly legal:rolleyes::D:rolleyes:!!
