Raptor porting?
#1
I was looking at my cylinder head yesterday while I had my carbs off. I stuck my finger down the carb boot and noticed a big ridge of casting left in the intake, as well as the fact that the boots dont exactly match up to the head. Is this as bad as it seems? It made me wanna rip the head off and send it away for a nice porting job. Also, LRD is the closest big name shop to me and I can drop it off to them in person, anybody have them port a 4 stroke? I dont know if $400ish is worthwhile for the performance gain, any thoughts as to bang for the buck? Can I just go in and file down the casting lines without any negative effect and perhaps a modest gain??

The boots seem to have about 1/16th or so lip to them, fairly thick but not an obscene amount. What would you use to clean them up? I was thinking of using a round rasp or?? Any suggestions on how to proceed? I take it I should not even attempt to remove the casting that is sticking up in an obvious ridge?
