I would not bother PP our engines unless they produced more power. I assume the gains would be very litte and cost a arm and leg to do. what kind of gains are you tryin gto achieve? how much power you looking for? what kind of money are you willing to spend?

I have to agree with the previous post. This is a way to get the last bit of performance out of a race car engine of specific displacement. I think a blower would give more bang for the dollar.
One positive is that it would be stealth...wouldn't void the warranty.

I shop that I know say they can get about whp300 for around $5-6 grand. It includes custom ported heads and cams port and polished intake manifold, and software.
I was just wondering if this was feasible?

Porting and Polishing is definately worth the money.. why do all race motors have completely built ported and polished engines... Brabus, Renntech, Carlsson, BRI, all carry machining services to their custom built engines...It's the first step to monster power!
