I have done up 187's on my 350. Swap was done a little over 5 years ago. Let me see if I can find the pics from the build

Re: 187 193 ported head pics

That would be great. Ive started attacking my exhaust ports already i would like to see some of the intake ports. I was going to taper the guide a bit and cleanup the ramp and bowl mainly. kinda looks like the corner of the ramp could be taken off some. maybie a litte unshrouding on the sides of the chambers to. How did these work on your 350?

I've done a set in the past. They can actually take a good bit of material out. Just have to be VERY CAREFUL in the bowls and the pushrod pinch as they are a touch thin.

If you have some time to kill, this fellow did a while series of videos on porting these heads. Here's the first one...if you want to, you can find the rest.
