Default Good reasonably priced flowbench?

I'd like to learn to port my own cylinder heads. I'd probably start by buying cracked ones from the junkyard and just experimenting hacking them up.

Anybody know a good, reasonably priced flowbench that would help me guage how well my adjustments are working out?

Thanks.

The least expensive I know of is the Flow Quik by Audie:

It's not as accurate as the professional benches but the results are very repeatable which is what you need to gauge your work.

If you want to build your own, you might get some ideas here:

Good Luck.
