I'm about to start porting (actually finish porting) my PI heads for my '97 GT. I had planned on having lots of time before the swap, but my conversion intake gaskets just started leaking.
I'd like to know the following:
-Where are the dangerous parts of the head as far as wall thickness in relation to the water jackets?
-Bigger valves? Are they worth it with a relatively mild port job?
-What kind of grinding media should I use. I know I'll be using some sandrolls, but those aren't very good for doing small areas like bowl work or in the combustion chamber.
-Should I remove or reduce the "emissions wall" or whatever that big bump is that shrouds the intake valve?
What are the toughest parts of the actual swap? Special tools? Anything else?
Thanks for your help in preparing for my swap.
