Wow, maybe I should move closer to Skib so I have more motavation to finish things! :) Looks fun, though porting always gets aluminum shavings everywhere. Shoes, buttcrack, hair.

You still have the ZX Skib?

 

 

yuuup, my dad uses it for a DD when he cant ride his Harley

 

 

 

 

nice work skib, ive been considering swapping from my shaved p79 to a my e31. i like the e31 ports, but the p79 valves.

 

 

thats the plan, Ill be puttin in the larger valves.

 

 

 

Just curious what are you using to port the heads ?

 

 

using a wide flute carbide bit

Im going to tell you this.... Skibs bedroom...... parts everywhere Like hes a pack RAT-SUN and shit. Its like a museum. Like you can trip on a head and land in a pile of pistons. If something falls on you its probably a freshly painted valve cover that was hanging from the ceiling fan. He sleeps on a couple of 620 bench seats layed out on the ground with big rat n wrenches tagged on em.... "SKIB" is graffed up on the wall and there is one of those "break glass if emergency" fire extinguisher deals on the wall with a ban hammer in it....
