doesn't look like you've done a bad job there to be honest no harm in giving it a go, if it doesn't work you can replace it fairly cheaply anyway!

Why pay some one to do the head when you can do it yourself.

no one person in particular. i subscribe to a few american youtube channels on head porting and done a lot of online research. i have a basic understaning of airflow so just got stuck in. hopefully its ok. do you see errors?

i could have had it done for £300 which is a good price to be fair but my car is not about other people doing work for me. my joy comes from doing it myself even if i fall short on expert level then at least iv learned and enjoyed it. thanks
