Porting LS heads Math and tools step by step DIY

[@kolourblind3124]

Man I really don’t want to screw up any volumetric flow to bad and I’ve watched enough of your videos to have the courage to attempt some head work so I’m just gonna smooth intake long radius and sides, probably finish short radius with like a 320 grit and work the swirl ramp a bit but no bowl cut just smooth. Raise the roof on the exhaust side and mirror finish the port as best I can. Only building an lq4 NA with 585 lift cam and 243 heads. Thanks for making these videos!

[@HeadFlowInc]

Nothing smoother than 60-80 grit inside the intake runners/ports! Just clean up the port textures and slightly reduce the valve guide boss and run it! If you’re not comfortable yet with throat/bowl work don’t worry about it. 👍😎

Great Video and narration looked correct. I used an angle grinder quite a bit and for me it is about tool control and comfort.

@@HeadFlowInc The work around the guide is excellent ... I've seen those guides get nibbed and can leave less boss to sit on. lol mind numbing .... I have fixed and polished Alum and stainless trim.... I notice the burr has a radius close to that of the bowl, just easier to maintain the radius and remove material.?... To start with anything much smaller would possibly leave grooves or trails as you shaped it?

[@HeadFlowInc]

You can do the entire port job with a 3/8” double cut burr but it would take for ever. Definitely using the right size & shape burr makes the work easier. Also, helps avoid ridges etc hard to smooth. JD

Love these videos Jeff. This video answered every last question I had

[@chriscase6341]

Maybe 1 more, how do U keep Ur burrs clean. Mine are already gummed up with aluminum. Heard something about maybe keeping them cool with wd-40

[@HeadFlowInc]

@@chriscase6341 I use mig tip grease, anti splatter dip and clean the burrs with a stiff wire wheel/brush. Treat before porting; stop every once in a while and cool the burr by dipping it in the grease. Hopefully you can get all the aluminum cleaned out, it can be difficult. JD

[@inline4cyl20]

Instead of spending a lot of time grinding your bowl percentage with a hand grinder and valve for a template have your machine shop that’s doing the valve job “ bore the seats “ to the percentage you want for example 87% exhaust and 89 intake it saves a lot of time and will make them very consistent. They can use a 90 degree straight cutter to get the diameter you want for the percentage. You seem to do good work and explain things well .

[@HeadFlowInc]

I would absolutely have the machine shop set the bowls and I do so when the customer requests one or needs a valve job. Amazingly the vast majority of the heads I’ve done didn’t need a valve job, only facing the valves/lapping them to verify seal. Every once in a while I come across some badly pitted exhaust seats needing work and must have a valve seat cut; The added cost of a valve job ranges from $225.00 to $325.00 depending on whether you want a “Standard” or “CNC Performance” valve job. This added costs simply exceeds a lot of people’s budget I guess. I’d be interested in just having the bowls cut, but the machine shop won’t only cut the bowls or only “touch” the seating angle to clean it up, they insist your being charged for setup so at that time it’s all or nothing. I agree with you 100%!!! I’d love to be able to save the time and gain repeatability in the bowl accuracy, yes please! JD

[@inline4cyl20]

@@HeadFlowInc My brother has cnc mill and lathe I’m going to have him make me a adjustable cutter with a pilot that could be used with a standard drill press , I hear you a lot of machine shops just don’t like doing custom stuff anymore I used to take it to a shop that would but they stopped said it was not cost effective enough, it’s surprising how many people port heads and don’t take the time to set seat throat diameter , some heads are pretty bad from the factory .

[@Baard2000]

Professional porter in the Netherlands. I luckily have my own fully equipped shop. And I know exactly what you mean. Lots of shops just do a complete std job or not. Whereas I fully work on customer request sometimes. Lots of shops think they are " high performance " shops.... but most dont understand flow. Or think that customers think too complicated . I have seen heads completely ruined by wrong valve seat jobs ...only to be fixed by bigger valves or replacing seats and cut them right. I say : work is work....and I may charge maybe more when cutting seats but the result of the engine performance and reliability is what counts. Not return on investment !!! Also I see lots of shops with employees who dont really care or dont understand why. I work alone and always in close contact with customers. So no problems in communication and attitude.

[@charleslowe522]

Thanks very much for the upload. I have two pair of heads to port, a set I need to pick up from the boneyard and a set 3800 series 2/3 heads.

[@HeadFlowInc]

My porting math videos will help with throat percentages to valve size being conservative is always best. The rest of the port use your judgement on smoothing etc but try not to remove too much from the short turns and don’t make any turns or angles steeper. Go slow and take breaks, good luck! JD

[@fullerals]

Your videos are very informative and your points come across clearly. I’ve rebuilt quite a few engines but only ported the heads a couple times through the years. I imagine anyone watching your videos has done engine work before. I’m not trying to be a dick, buuuut ,,, several times I stopped the video because your tendency to be long winded, and repeating insignificant parts over and over again... don’t get me wrong, your vids are very good and informative. Just makes me anxious for to get to the point. Folks interested in porting their heads must already have some engine building experience so no need to explain 27 times to not hit the valve seat... ok, done ranting... I do watch YOUR vids when I want info. (And only 1 or 2 others ) camera work and lighting is always good... learned some things from you,,, keep the vids coming,,, just realize,,, we’re not dummies ... don’t take this the wrong way

@@HeadFlowInc ,,, glad you took it well,,, I’ll be watching hot new videos,,, I’m currently building a Mopar 408 stroker. Have edelbrock performer rpm heads. 176 intake ports/ 2.02 valves. ( 1.65 exhaust, I believe ),,, turns out the horse power I can get with these heads is about 600, but the 408 stroker, with my components combination should get more hp, so I’m porting the heads to like 190 cc,,, let me ask you a question, how much cushion is safe as far as cc inconsistency/differences from port to port ?,,, for harmonics and flow characteristics ,,, in your opinion ?,,, thanks

[@HeadFlowInc]

A couple cc isn’t going to show any real difference. I’d be shocked if a 176cc port could flow more than +- 235-240 cfm. The rule is NA each cfm of air x2 equals power “potential”, so for a head to support 600 hp NA it needs to flow close to 300 cfm. On a 408 cid the minimum port I’d recommend is a 210cc+ but you may not get there with your current castings I’m just not sure.

[@The3chordwonder]

Great video as always, with your video I decided to port my 862 heads. I picked up a spare set just to practice on, and so far I'm just working those to get the feel for my grinder and my burrs. One question I had -- the rocker arm bolt boss, is there enough meat to get it completely flat, or do I still need to leave a bit of a bump in the walls? One other dumb question if I may. When you talk about cutting down the bowl, or perhaps you said throat...Are you meaning to grind the actual valve seat insert (Not the seat itself, but the hardened metal part) to the 87% of valve diameter? If so, I was thinking about trying to come up with a hard stop with my burr, perhaps a fender washer with a hole offset for the burr shank to poke through, and then centered on the valve stem? e.g. size the offset hole on the fender washer so that knowing the max OD of the burr and the 87% max you want the hardened metal insert to be? I'm thinking if I did this, then I could poke the burr shank through the fender washer hole, and literally "walk/rotate" the washer with the burr on it around the opening and as long as I held the grinder straight, I wouldn't have to worry about nicking the valve seat.

[@peteJoseph-x3h]

Good tips and pointers here.

[@magnusdanielsson2749]

Thank you very much for the walk through. Im about to port some 60deg gen2 aluminium heads. They seem very similar in design to these ls heads. One question about the swirl ramp. Does that ramp create swirl or is it just reducing flow. Does the reduction of if make for less swirl or how would you say the relationship between swirl creation and flow is affected? Do you ever change the combustion chambers? Can one make them bigger if the cr is too high? Or would you say its too much risk involved?

Well I bent a valve on my 440 sbc. I had turned rev limit up to 6800 and here I am. Looks like valve was a tight on the adjustment. Heads are brodix 225 so I think I am gonna get some port work done while I have heads repaired.

[@HeadFlowInc]

Dang that sucks, sorry to hear the issue, Sounds like you had pretty tight piston to valve clearance, was it an exhaust valve that hit? You may want to have a little deeper valve reliefs or a slightly thicker head gasket for safety. Brodie heads are usually very nice! JD

[@cfmechanic]

@@HeadFlowInc good valve reliefs. Just not adjusted right my mistake plus its hydraulic roller so no more than 6500 for me. From now on at least. Head gasket is .062 about as thick as I wanna go.

[@davidreed6070]

I've often wondered why machine shops don't set up a cutter to 90% and sweep the bowl.

[@HeadFlowInc]

I’ve noticed what they call a standard valve job on these cathedrals is cut with a 1.750” throat or 87.5%, but the “Performance multi-angle valve job has a 1.780” or 89% throat. I’m with you 89% should be standard with any valve job. It saves a lot of time if the throat is already close.

[@canadianmarauder1923]

That was good. I haven’t watched in a while. I have had 8.8 diffs and 4r70w transmissions on the brain but I’m getting closer to doin my first mild port job. I’m curious what you prefer for valve guide material? Factory powdered metal or the fancy bronze manganese ones? I’m an old bearded guy too

[@HeadFlowInc]

I’ve had great luck and longevity running the factory guides. On the newer heads like the LS7 the guides are junk and must be upgraded immediately or valve failure is soon to follow. Good luck on learning to port go slow and you should be fine! JD

[@chriswise1232]

I'm planning on replacing the 873 heads on my 6.0L with some 706 heads and doing some mild porting to the heads and intake. Would I be better off replacing the smaller valves on the 706 heads with the 2.0/1.55 valves from the 873s? Would I need to have the throats bored larger or any other machine work?

[@HeadFlowInc]

It depends greatly on your combo and goals are you trying to build a torque monster or are you trying to build higher horsepower. Factory 706 head will easily support 440 hp, if you plan to exceed that much power and naturally aspirated then yes you would want to do the larger valves requiring a Val job proper throats in both and some on shrouding other valves in the chambers. I do not recommend milling the heads because it’s easy to exceed pump gas running the small chambered hands on a 6 L depending on what camshaft you’re running, the combo Hass to be compatible with the fuel you plan to run.

[@donaldspeck9212]

What advise would you give to someone who wants to Port a 5.4 3v aluminum head ?

[@HeadFlowInc]

Start by measuring the throat area of each port then compare the results to the valve diameter for each. Intake port throat size should be 89-90% of the intake valve diameter. Exhaust port throat size I use 87% of the exhaust valve diameter. At the very least you want to set a performance throat size on all and blend them into the Bowl area and port. Eventually I have a set of 5.4 4V heads I’m going to port on my channel, subscribe and click the bell so you will be notified! JD

Love the videos, about to try porting my first set of 243s. Would greatly appreciate a how to vid on making your bowl cut guides. I understand putting the old valve into a drill, but not understanding how you are grinding it down to size and keeping it perfectly round against a bench grinder. A video are any help with helping me better understand how you are doing that would be very helpful. Thanks brother, and keep up the great vids.

[@HeadFlowInc]

Good idea, I can show how I’ve done it using a drill and a bench grinder. I chuck the sacrificial valve in a drill and run the drill opposite of the rotation of the bench grinder. You’d be surprised how affective this process cuts down the valve, just go slow measure often using a set of calipers. The sharper and square the valve is the better it will scratch/scribe to the seat. Intake template: 89% of the intake valve diameter. Exhaust template: 86-87% of the valve diameter. Note: Many shops do not like putting 2.02” valves in factory seats so if you are considering larger valves check with the shop first. JD

[@daleballa8995]

@@HeadFlowInc Ok, I understand now. You are running them opposite of each other, wasn't sure if you just ran the drill and left the bench grinder stationary. That makes since now. Just so i am understanding bowl cut percentages it is 89% of the overall diameter of the valve i.e my valve is 2.00 so my template would be 1.88 correct? Thanks so much for the info brother. Dale

[@HeadFlowInc]

You can experiment with the D-shape similar to the 243-799 heads as long as you stay inside the gasket opening. On the truck ports I raise it and slightly widen the port but not so much it ends up fish mouthed or funnel shaped. JD

[@HeadFlowInc]

@@nickmkkay yes go slow and only move your burr or sanding roll where you can see what it’s touching. Anxiety can build impatience, when this happens take a break. If you use a 3/8” double cut egg to work the throat you can see it working only the very bottom of the seat. JD

[@HeadFlowInc]

The swirl ramp was used as a way to improve low lift flow to help with torque production in a stock application. The current porting project on the channel maintains the small 1.89”/1.55” valves and the swirl ramp; yet out flows the LS6 243 heads. For max performance applications the swirl ramp is removed to increase volume and flow. JD

On a 350 horsepower engine how much horses does hand-poured add?? or about.

[@HeadFlowInc]

The key word will be “Potential” power gain or loss. Cylinder head flow is potential HP, ie each cfm of flow is roughly 2hp of potential power. CFM x 2= Potential Power If you want to build 450Hp or less at the crankshaft stock LS heads will support this level. 862/706 = 450hp 243/799 = 500+ hp Just a camshaft upgrade alone can add 50-100+ hp depending on application and size. If all you want is 350-450hp Max then you don’t need ported heads. A ported head flowing 300+ cfm will support 600+ hp. JD

[@coarsegrind]

What is the purpose for the swirl ramp?

[@HeadFlowInc]

The swirl ramp helps promote torque by directing part of the incoming air directly at the back of the valve. Also the ramp forces the air away from the back wall behind the guide helping velocity.
