I posted this in LT1 Tech, but I figured since it's for a boosted application I might get more/better replies here.

My car has AFR 195's from the previous owner. They are supposed to be ported/polished, but judging by the receipts it was more of just a cleanup. One of the things that I was thinking of doing this winter is pulling the heads and having them flowed. A cam swap was in mind for this winter, so I figured that I might just do the heads to their maximum potential and then get a cam that's well suited to them. My question is: Who should I go to for the porting and machine work? I've always heard (i'm FAR from an expert on heads) that the porter needs to have experience with LT1 heads and not just SBC heads for maximum results. Do the AFR's change that at all? I have a connection with a guy who apparently does some awesome work on SBC heads, but I have no idea if he's done an LT1 before. This is a blower application, looking to make as much HP as reasonably possible. Vortech t-trim, should be getting an air-water intercooler over the winter as well. Right now I am pushing 16-17psi of boost, looking for that to either stay the same or I have a pulley that created 21-22psi boost on my current setup. If I do not go with this guy, who should I look to for very good work in this application?

This is all pretty much hypothetical right now, just for research purposes. Any and all feedback is appreciated.
