i use WD-40 on the carbide cutters when porting aluminum heads, rarely did i ever see any clogging.

I never had any clogging problems unless I turned up the heat on my Dremel (30,000 RPMs). I didn't like it spinning that fast anyways because it didn't really do any better going fast than slow..."I am not what you so glibly call to be a civilized man.

Dremel ROFL. Do you know how many of those I burned up?
Burrs don't clog unless you are pushing too hard, stones will on aluminum. Iron and stones make a great pair lol.Comment

If your using an ferrous burr on a non ferrous metal it will clog quickly. If you buy a burr specific to aluminum it will not require much if any oil and will cut very fast and smooth. Dr. Air sells very affordable porting kits for the hobbyist with burrs and sanding rolls in one box.1993 EXT. CAB, 3.4L V6 TBI, 5spd manual. Sonoma

OK apperently all of the tools I was using were wrong for aluminum. They cut iron in record time though.

I didn't see a porting kit, I guess I'd have to call for a price?"I am not what you so glibly call to be a civilized man. I have broken with society for reasons which I alone am able to appreciate.

I get most of my stuff from Eastwood, always top notch stuff for a good price.

I second the Eastwood suggestion. They make great sanding rolls and other porting items.Originally posted by Superdave View Post1996 Grand Prix | 3100v6 L82 | T04E-50 Turbo | Getrag 282 w/ EP LSD | SPEC-3 ClutchComment
