I'm interested in this. I'm putting a '04 3400 in my Beretta (replacing the 3100) and will only make about 200hp with the parts I have.
Will the FFP underdrive pulley I have work with the RWD platform?

port matching a head gasket? dude you need more research before you start modding your engine.
if youre talking porting the intake and matching the head's intake ports...not much hp. maybe 10-15...way not worth the work yankin the heads off.

anyway, NoRiceInside nailed what i was getting at(i'm still a noob at engine internals, forgive me, my engine vocabulary
). but i read about port matching where you take a marker and a die grinder and match the ports on the heads with the ports on the intake manifold. it's supposedly "free" hp. i figured that ported and polished heads ALONG with a port match would mean some serious airflow for the 3.4. but of course that also leaves me with another question. will that leave a low enough compression ratio to run say 20psi from a turbo? reason i ask is because even though i would love to see a 400hp 3.4, it would be even more of a dream to see one that has 700+hp.
