gasket matching intake ports
 

I am porting some E7's (I have finished the exhaust) but am wondering about gasket matching the intake.

My car has the stock cam, 1.7 rockers, and performer rpm. If I match the intake and heads to the intake manifold gasket, will I be going bigger than I need to?

All the porting guides say to gasket match the intake. So thats what I was going by...

I know not to mirror polish the intakes, I am just wondering about size here.

thanks

Match them both to the gasket. The gasket serves as a template.

yeah, what I was wondering - on a basically stock setup will I lose intake velocity by going that big? With the setup that I said I had will it hurt or help?

thanks

Should be fine. Just work harder on the exhaust side.

Good Luck
