I think he absolutely 100% correct about how people think...

Well their not necessarilly "lying." The other guys that port differently have found a method that they like. This guy has found his.
Its all about trial and error. This guys seems to have found something that works. Ive read half way through, Im going to sign up for his newsletter.
Pretty interesting stuff.

but.... he said he was useing stock carbs on his bike
i can see a stock carb not likeing a huge ported head
if he is right why dont the nhra top fuel cars use stock heads....lol
hes right to a point but nothing is always right or true

I believe what he says It true. Velocity speeds up the air flow & kinda acts like a supercharger. If you pulled air through a paper towl tube the velocity would stay the same In & out. If you pulled air through a transmission funnel, the velocity would be much higher, your scooping alot of air & forcing It through a small opening.

I look at my V-Force reed cage and understand what this guy is getting at. The intake side of the cage is real small, smaller then a stock cage. It helps to icrease velocity.

its totally true, it isnt necessarily "smaller" ports, but correctly shaped and sized ports. if you canoe down a river, where the river get narrow, it speeds up right? well, thats how an intake port is supposed to work , and when the air is going fast right the at the narrow part, the valve opens and the air "rams" itself into the cylinder. the key to head porting is making this theory work its best.

I just read a little part of it.
"Then some of the charge gets pushed back out of the cylinder and into the port as the piston returns up the bore during the intake charging phase."
"It gets worse !
On a carbureted bike the reversing charge will create an effect called double carburetion, which means the mixture will become even richer with fuel as it passes back over the main jet nozzle for a second time."
Ok now to test this theory take off your air filter and place a piece of paper over it If its blowing back out the carb then it will blow back onto the paper pushing it away from where the filter should be. BUT i have never seen this happen. Also with the increasing RPM's the more air is sucked so his theory of blowing back through the carb is even less effective. The only way this would work is if the valves arnt sealing.
Now im not saying everything hes saying is crap I do belive a high velosity port can be good. Some engines i port that way. Some i dont it depends on what they are looking for. In my experiences You will get more torque with a high velocity porting and high hp with BIG porting.
Diffrent strokes for diffrent folks Good porting is good porting who gives a *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited* how its done, there is not right or rong if it runs good. He found what works for him but i will guarintee it wont work for everyone.
