Default Head porting

Which companies do head porting. I have a set of 317s I wanna get reworked and wondering who you have dealt with or who you would recommend. They are all priced around 1k + or - 200 bucks so I guess it would just be a matter of prefference.

Check into the PRC heads offered by Texas Speed. They usually have as good or better flow numbers compared to other ported heads that I have seen and the price is really good on them.

If you have something you want ported I'd call them. They have had some great proven results. The port job is 1000... that doesn't include new springs etc.

Advanced Inductions or TEA would be my choice. Look at all builds on LS1Tech under dyno section. They seem to have best results. I like the fact AI uses stock size valves which are lighter and still manage to produce great flow and even better dyno numbers. Plus Phil seems to provide great technical and customer service.
