I have had porting work done by farhon ,has anybody on here used him for rebores as i may need this done and i am certainly not using the last famous tuner who supplied me with valve pistons and told me to fit an extra base gasket .

Rich Valve pistons are fine in an LC if you remove the tab in the middle of the rear skirt. This is because the LC doesn't have a bridged inlet port.

Well this famous tuner never told me to file off the tangs ,just to fit an extra base gasket .When i was getting Farhon to do the tuning work i mentioned about the gasket and it was him that told me to file the tang level with the skirt.

No idea why they would tell you to fit an extra base gasket.
I've been running RZ pistons in my LC for years.

Port timing, compression or squish (spelling??) maybe?

Ron Phillips is one of the best in the business. As another poster said, you may not get it done quick but when its done it'll be right.
