Just wondering if this has an effect or if removing the various sharp edges and excess material and smoothing the bowl out will be suffcient and aid flow?

Actually what I believe you are talking about is a ridge that is created because the valve seat isn't perfectly centered. The valve seat needs to be ground so the seat and port wall do not have a ridge.

When doing streetport work... remember flow direction, some ugly things need more work than others
