Shade Tree Head Porting

This page is for the DIY (Do It Yourself) porting enthusiast. Here, we will explore many facets of engine part porting.

Special Announcement

The pages referring to trimming the GT40P spark plug boss have been removed. I have received a report of spark plugs loosening in one case. While this may not have anything in common with trimming the plug boss, I have decided to remove those pages that show any modifications to the plug boss.
