Porting is openening up the intake and exhaust ports, where the air/fuel goes in and the exhaust comes out. More in and out means more power. Only the exhaust port gets "polished", because a smooth finish on the intake side isn't what you want. A little roughness on the surface will keep the air and fuel "tumbling" for better combustion. Save your money for a pipe. A P&P won't do a whole lot for a stocker.

I'm in South Lincoln right at this particular moment, on RT 2 to be exact....whereabouts are you?
