hey guys i wanted to look into getting my intake and heads ported and polished, along with a few other things. i heard about a port and polish kit u can buy on ebay. would it b worth my time to buy it and learn to do that for future projects, or go ahead and have it done professionally?

 

Only you can say whether it's worth it or not. But if I were curious and just wanted to know how to do this or I planned on doing several within a short period or planned to do this professionally, then yes I would spend the money.
But if I'm only having one done every couple of years then no, I'd have a pro. do it.
