Inliners International Forums General Discussion Hi Performance Rebuild the head first or port first?

Im gonna get my head rebuilt on a 235 and some port work done. The place that rebuilds doesnt port. Im thinking that getting it ported first would be better so i can send the head as a bare casting to the rebuilder. The only worry I have is not getting the exact head back after the rebuild.The rebuild company is a huge company out of Oakland, Ca.

It looks like the intakes cant be ported to big cause then I cant use the locator rings. How I get around that?

Thanks,
Dan Nelson
