Hard-a-Port

Based on research, I may have to admit that I underestimated the benefits of head porting on the 1.9 L CVH engine. It still would require a different throttle body, benefit from a different cam, needs an exhaust header, and requires reprograming the ECM. I think turbocharging might be cheaper, but less stealth.

Chief Mechanic/Crew Chief Dave -
Where did you get the impression that porting might be better than you initially thought? Inquiring minds want to know.

ps - can I just refer to you as 'DF' now, instead of Chief Mechanic/Crew Chief?

I read about porting a 1.9 on the internet, so it must be right. DF ???
