intake manifold

Post by **CaDet s13** » Wed Feb 13, 2013 5:51 pm

So my question is fairly simple. I know you can extrude and hone the stock exhaust manifold and it will out perform alot of the aftermarket ones up to a certain hp range. Im curious if i can do the same to my spare intake manifold? Its an 8port. Also is there any real benefit of doing this? If so i figure it would be something worth experimenting with.

AFAIK, nobody has done it and compared before and after to say what the difference was.

Wouldnt it be a moot point if your head isnt ported?

Well once i find a good machine shop in south fl im going to take my spare head, exhaust mani and intake mani to them. So hopefully ill get some info for you guys on the benefits of honing and extruding the intake mani.

I ported the lower and both my 8 port, and 4 port heads. I know it made a difference on the 8 port, as I could compare the before and after. I couldn't do that with the 4 port. The upper manifold on mine is port matched and polished as far up inside as I could reach, but that really isn't all that far.
