When you say modified are you talking modified to produce the sound you'd like or modified in the latta method to fit in a 5/8 hole?

Latta method.  I also sand and buff them inside and out to smooth them and ease the edges.

I definitely like the latta method for crows its a great way to do it if you don't want to spend the money on a tapered reamer

Yup, and the addition of a couple o-rings makes for a better setup anyway!
