porting info
I just got a TB and IM off a wrecked 2001 Sephia and want to port them. Problem is I'm not sure how. I have a grimal and a drill but how do you get into the runners of the IM? Plus I can't reach most of the inside of it.
Any suggestions from someone that has had success would be great

Pick up "Modern Engine Tuning" or "4 Stroke Performance Tuning" by A. Graham Bell. He has a chapter on porting, and goes into much more detail that I could possibly put into one post. The book also has diagrams.
You cannot do the TB yourself, that would have to be done at a machine shop, and it would have to have a new butterfly manufactured to match the new larger bore.

If you pick up the above-mentioned publications, PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE RECCOMENDED DIMENSIONS! These have been optimised for your use, and to overdo it would mean a wasted head...oh, it would help to match the IM to the ports and the exhaust ports to the extractor...kills cavitation.
