Anyone using Fusion 360 for 5 axis cylinder head porting?

Hi
I produce a custom cast cylinder head and I'm thinking about building a 5 axis head for my mill to do the porting. I'm not working off of a probed port but rather the original surface model I designed. And the extent of the porting is simply smoothing what is there since it already flows pretty well. I currently do it by hand or sell it un ported. I'm looking to automate because not only do I hate porting my consistency from port to port is probably not amazing
So I guess the question is how viable is fusion for this type of work. Does it produce decent tool paths? Does it play nice with surfaces created elsewhere and imported into fusion.
Thanks
