[QUOTE="kas_lar, post: 1581441, member: 31437"] Just a quick and funny update. I ordered Fel-Pro MS95952 intake gaskets from RockAuto, shipping to Denmark, and dropped both of the intakes off to be sandblasted at a machine shop. I’ve always wanted to have the intakes ported, but the machine shop guy said that it would be a lot of work, and I even bought a cheap Dremel tool myself. I tried to port it myself, but I didn’t get far before I started cursing and burning/wasting the heads/bits of the Dremel tool. I gave up… But then suddenly, in a Facebook group for Swedish Mustang parts, I saw a BigDog-ported GT40 for sale. The cost of the parts including shipping was less than what I paid for my current GT40 here locally in Denmark. I bought the BigDog-ported intake and had it shipped across Sweden, and the lower intake is now being sandblasted. I need to cap off the IAC on the lower and cap the ports on the upper. The upper intake is painted black, and I just need to freshen up the black colour and I’ll make the lower one silver. I’m planning to port-match the Fel-Pro upper gasket and order a 1262 lower gasket. [/QUOTE]
