Default Update * ported and polished head

I needed to stop a head gasket leak. It seemed the source was midway on pass side where the lifter oil galley is located. New FelPro gaskets, perma torque or whatever. New oem rockauto bottom dollar header, ported and polished the intake and cylinder head. Just bolted her and torqued her last night.

It's been tough since I work 60 + hours .aweek and I get home late and usually go to the gym and I got a 5 MO keeping us busy. But it's been well overdue for such a Polish. I found the paint from Beggs or summit and it was from Mopar. Cobalt blue but actually looks more tealish. Torqued an borqued.
fel Pro
The ol gasket had holes punching through the triangular passages.
Cleaned an durte
Mopar Cobalt blue
Sludge and tons of metal.

Very cool project. Keep it up. That Mopar teal sure is nice.
