spoke with tmoss and he said that for my combo" basically stock" work is not required yet on the intake ...thought that that was kinda cool , he said the intake flows rather well in stock form . And i spent some time looking at doing work on the e7 head , i might give it a go cause i have all the tools for a full port and match job (from my chevy days!!!) anyway intake is at the machine shop for cleaning now , then i will doll it up and install , i also have some stainless shorty headers and a bbk x chamber pipe and the car had 40 flows when i got it so might get a few ponies from the lil project i have planned !!
