Trickflow 240 clean up

I'm not a real fan of the CnC look. However! there is places, that texture will help pull liquid fuel running down the port walls, back into suspension.
I wouldn't touch the seat/bowl/throat area, as a clean up idea. It will more then likely not help. A flow bench may show a gain, but will not be seen in performance.
I have no experience with these heads, but a texture that you can catch you finder on, is a good thing, under the intake valve.


Almost never does fuel that drops out of suspension get back into the air stream. Wet flow, or wall flow or spray or whatever term you want won’t be re-atomized by surface finish.

You can in some cases agitate the boundary layer and keep some fuel in suspension. But mostly it just follows the port to the chamber.

In a wet manifold system the manifold has a puddle on the floor, and the engine mostly runs off the puddle.

You can over atomize fuel too much. The number one way to do that is with heat in the intake. That’s a power loser.
