I have roughly $1,500 to spend on my motor...

- Can you port/polish stock heads or is it worth the cost to purchase aftermarket heads and cams?

- Is there something else that would give HP for the cost instead of heads/cam?

The aftermarket heads you see for sale is the exact same heads on your car except they have been ported, So yes it is cheaper to get yours ported! I see your from GA If your serious about the port job,there is a guy around here who is supposed to be one of the best around. His name is scott milner of coupe performance, He does all the porting for mv performance. He told me a while back $750 w/ a valve job! I can get his number if you want,all I have is his nextel number
