Good Cylinder head porting in the WEST ?

Looking for head porter on west side of the continent.
ideally cerdi 5 angle valve job, possibly oversize valves, and head rebuild.

this is for my zx14 head.

got any good recomendations?

thanks,

It was going to Bob Carpenter in Jersey, but shipping from the west side of Canada is retarded.

Why not contact Y2K? How much more would it cost to ship it considering what you are investing in a port job.

About $300 more each way!
I am also looking for a port specific for turbo application, so all the rd he has done to make them flow and maintain good port velocity under atmospheric conditions is mostly moot at 11 psi.
Most of the mods he does are to intake as he told me, and turbo's need more on the exhaust than anything.

I know, just turn up the boost, .....well, my goal is to make as much HP as i can reliably on Pump fuel for street. Then turn it up more for race fuel

Why is shipping so expensive ?
Did you check different shippers?

Dang, $300 for shipping! Time to get the dremel out, cutter, and lapping compound!

Just Kidding..........................................maybe

Maybe give Jay at APE or Muzzy a call and see what they can do for a set up like yours.


On that port for a street turbo you may loose a little on the bottom end.


Just curious which turbo kit do you have on your 14?
