Identifying a ported and polished head

[sciroccodave@yahoo.com (David Hellekson)]

Howdy,

It may depend to what extent the P&P was done. If any
polishing was done you would see smooth areas, not the
rough surface. The visual difference is amazing. I
have an Oettinger P&P head and it is obvious the work
was done.
