Proper head porting

I am in the final stages of rebuilding my six, and before I put the head on I want to clean it up. I plan on port matching the intake to the head, polishing the combustion chamber, and doing some pocket porting. Are there any certain spots I should concentrate on that are known for hurting flow on this head? This is a 240 head going on a 300 that is built for torqe, it has an offy DP and a Crane Truck Power cam
Thanks in advance
Bob
