This patent describes a variable swirl siamese type intake port structure for an internal combustion engine cylinder head formed with a combustion chamber to which a spark plug having an ignition point is provided. The method comprises: a first generally straight intake passage which leads to a first intake port opening to the combustion chamber and a second generally helical intake passage which leads to a second intake port, also opening to the combustion chamber, formed with a helical end vortex portion; a control valve fitted in the first generally straight intake passage at an upstream portion thereof so as to control its flow resistance; and: a substantially straight auxiliary passage, opening from a point upstream of the control valve to a point near the downstream end of the first intake port and bypassing the control valve.
