Default Raptor Port and Polish

I want to port and polish the head on my 03 Raptor. Does anyone know a good place to send it and how much it would cost? Also just as an extra question, I am doing the port and polish because I have heard the it will make the best power increases for trail riding and cross country. Is the stage 1 hot cam really worth it, or should I just stick with the head work?

Look up Norm Crume at Norm's Auto Electric in Ontario, Oregon. He is your guy.

Really not much point in porting without a better cam, the stocker isnt really starving. Budget and use is going to determine what you build.

Porting ranges from a couple hundred bucks to around a grand so its not a one size fits all job and whats best for one bike isnt the best for another setup.

For instance your pipe has a heavy low and midrange bias so a top end port with a high lift and duration cam isnt going to perform as well as it should.
