== PREAMBLE == The purpose of this article is to acquaint engine builders on the tangible benefits of cylinder head porting and making more power through the porting process. Cylinder head porting or 'porting' as it is known in the hot rod circles, is classed as '''black magic''' in the engine building process. Proper porting procedures will result in getting the largest volume of air/fuel mix to the combustion chamber in the shortest amount of time. Porting works hand in hand with valve grinding and seat cutting. == Porting Tools and Materials == [[Die Grinders]] [[Grinding wheels and abrasive cartridges]] [[Polishing wheels]] [[Layout Dyes]] == Porting Practices == [[CNC Machining]] [[Pressurized abrasive honing]] [[Hand porting and polishing]] == Step by Step Porting Methods == == Reference Articles == If you like the hands on video approach, this is it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35O7mkLncHU == Process Photos == [[File:Comb_chambers.jpg]] [[File:Exhaust.jpg]] [[File:Exh_2.jpg]] [[File:Intake.jpg]] [[File:Intake_Edelbrock.jpg]] [[File:Short_side.jpg]] == Related Links == Check out the videos of CNC porting here: http://www.centroidcnc.com/cnc_porting_machine.html Looking for tools and abrasives, try here: http://www.ruffstuff.com/ A more technical approach: http://hubpages.com/hub/Cylinder-Head-Porting-101
