I had a little project I was doing the whole week. It only took so long because I painted it 2 coats everyday so I won't have problems with paint later.

First, I cleaned it with TB and IM cleaner. That stuff really smells








Second, I gasket matched the runners with permanent marker.









Third, I started porting.

 

Fourth, I taped up the Manifold to get ready for paint.



Next, started painting.











Last, I installed.

 

I notice pretty good gains from this, especially the low end torque.
Installation was cake, just make sure you label what goes where.

I have the stock Intake Manifold for sale...

I can give it to you stock or Port & Painted.

 

do u feel a difference since u did it?

 

Oh yea!

 

sweet, u gained power and saved some money instead of buy a port and polish intake mani

 

Well there is no need to polish the manifold.
Port & Polish is more for the Cylinder Head and Exhaust Manifold.
Hey you're local, if you want I can help you do this fun project.

 

Looks good, looks like the exhaust side would be next.

 

let's do it, it would be a good time

 

Thanks, but I'm going Turbo so I might do a little to the Exhaust Manifold. Maybe just gasket match it.

 

Hey if you're really serious about it send me a PM and we can go from there.

 

looks good man!

what did you use to port it? a dremel?

 

I used my Dad's drill, the bits I have don't fit a Dremel.
I say it's better because I can control the RPM's as I go.

 

Well there is a difference when you polish the manifold. The point is to reduce the turbulence of air as much as possible. A bunch or rough spots will decrease how fast the air can get to the motor.

 

True that but I didn't leave it too rough.
