I had the head for my BN2 pocket ported by APT here in Riverside, California. 
I have not assembled it to the engine yet.  I had it done because part of the
ports were gouged to facilitate the weld repair between 2 & 3 cylinder.  It
was done to even out the flow more than a performance enhancement.  Anyone
ported the four cylinder head?

harm than good is often done by modifying these heads. Given the engine spec,
I would leave it alone.
