Price for port & polishing cylinder head and intake mani

[Brown-Boy]

How much is it to get a good street/strip P&P? I'm trying to get an idea of what I'm going to spend.

Its hard to say, the price will vary by area and shop. It will depend on exactly how much porting you want and any other work, and who's doing it. Your best bet would be to call/ask around and shop for a price. Ask people in your area if they had any engine work and who did it. If several people don't like a particular shop stay away.

On our cars I don't know.

with a B3 prolly not too much of an HP increase... but then again, I never tried it...

From what I've heard and read a port & polish is really only good if you have other modifications, which makes perfect sense. Open up the intake and exhaust side and the P&P will only help.

My work on my P&P has costed me a bit, with other mods power gains can be great. You just need a few other things with the P&P to get the power you desire. A p&p with a good turbo and stong bottom could give you some great gains, but I would recommend too a lighter flywheel and a good psi boost with forged heads and conrods.

Dont get discouraged, try what you desire and be creative, these cars are capable of alot
