After flow testing with Bondo, I would build-up with some brass brazing rods to make something more permanent, and do the same for the "lumps" on the floor of the port.



The more I look at those valve guides the bigger interference they seem to be. Once the ultimate flow geometry around the guide is determined why not make guides that incorporate those aerodynamic features and just orient and press them in?
