Who does good work porting/polishing PI heads? In Texas?

[Back2Mustangs]

I'm probably buying a 96 GT tomorrow and the guy is giving me a set of '99 PI heads and '99 intake to match. I'm in DFW, TX area, and I was wondering if there was a local 4.6 head-porting guru, or if I should ship them off to someone...And whats the cost to expect?

Also getting aftermarket cams but I haven't seen them yet. I don't think there are many aftermarket cams available yet, so anyone wanna guess at what they might be?

Have cams...

The car I'm buying in the morning is coming with a set of cams installed on the PI heads(not on the car yet) But he doesn't know what the cams are, just that they are aftermarket. So how much HP can a 4.6 make N/A with ported heads and cams. What is the most I can expect from the best/most porting job and the most awesome cams ??? You can figure in full exhaust and all other supporting mods cuase its gonna have it all. But I want to know what potential lies in this motor, because I can't live with 200RWHP...I'll shoot myself

porting depends on what you want ..On average a good port job with valves and all runs 1200.00 +.

Mine were done by renagade racing in michigan.
Cams you have lots of choices..comp cams(i run a custom set of these),vt engines cams,crane now has some,and crower has some..Bu they are not cheap like 5.0 cams they average 550.00 for the pair ,then you need springs..
