Default porting heads

is it easy just to port the stock heads than buying new headers?

heads and headers aren't the same thing, but unless you know what your doing porting anything can be tough. Leave it to a shop if you don't know what your doing.

Yeah, I agree, if you have no idea what you are doing, it's best to leave it to the professionals. If you want to learn, check google, go to a junk yard and buy some used heads and practice. GL

i really don’t understand what you are asking here.&amp\\;nbsp\\; Are you talking about porting your heads or replacing your stock exhaust manifolds with headers?
