Don, when it's said that heads are pocket ported. Just where exactly are they talking. Jim at Indy Mustang commented on porting the heads, but I looked inside the intake and exhaust ports and could see no visible signs of porting. I used to race motocross and am familiar with what an untouched casting and a ported casting will look like. I was just wondering if the pocket porting work was done where I couldn't see it from the ports, or if I'd been duped again.
When I pull the motor down, I'll use a dial indicator and get the piston to deck height and I'll also do it to the head deck to valve distance. If I got you those numbers do you think you could tell me wether or not the comp cams 35-250-4 would work in my car. Just wondering.

Thanks for all your help.
