Bare heads are only good to get if you want to be responsible for putting them together, or having someone do so.

+1

Not worth buying bare heads unless you have good experience and aren't afraid to break something or spend more money later from breaking something.

What does it meen when it says "NON-Emissions" and what does it meen when it has Porting? Is that for special power adders or something? One says nitrous port. Without a special porting could you not add a special something onto it?

Non-emissions is a disclaimer about not intended for road use (in most cases it is a cya for the company)

Porting is the opening up of the Intake and Exhaust ports for added flow. I foyu have a cast head it removes the rough finish that causes pre-combustion chamber turbulence and robs HP.

Porting also improves shapes of the ports that is hard to mfg. with the casting process.

Simply put, it adds power which is the point.
