Porting & Polishing heads

Can anyone tell me of a book detailing how to port and polish heads. I have a dremel and a set of heads and would like to try it out. Thanks.

A die grinder works much better and faster to boot but if all you have is a dremel it can still be done. Download and print this basic guide from the web. It's a good place to start.

I'd also check out "How to build horsepower vol II carbs and manifolds" It covers port design and has great info.

I found the best info from a web site that I can't remember the name of but I found it with AltaVista.com or dogpile.com searches.

Fordmuscle.com has some info and pics on their site about porting.
