you can do it your self but i would not do it unless you do alot of reading about how to do it and you have a spare head because you can make it work worse then befor you started

If you want a REAL port job....send it out to someone who has done it a hundred times. You can (by yourself) clean it up to remove the casting marks. the larger ones with a grinder and smooth it out with sandpaper. Leave the Intake side slightly rough, and miror polish the exhaust side.

yes you can do it with a standard piston,but you will notice even more power with a high compression piston though.
