drtbiker, I was a grocerygetters house went I posted that. When you asked about porting, I didn't thing you had a good intake, I thought that we were speaking of the stock one. I would now say only do the lower, and just clean the minor imperfections. Well if that is all you do, go ahead and do the top also. It's just that with the Edelbroc you don't need to port it for it to work well. And open the bottom of the runners to just a slightly smaller opening than the heads. Also when you install it, use a flashlight to look down the ports to properly aline the intake to the heads. You can do a preliminary to realy see where to cut the lower runnners.
