i love this shot just because that's when you know you're at the point where everything just starts going back together like a puzzle.

What is that weld on the top of the intake manifold?? Did someone cut it out, and polish the inside or what?? I've never seen that on any other type r manifolds.

Hell yes! It looked like a CTR manifold to me. Is it polished also, or just port-matched?

WOW, this has to be the best build thread on HT all year
the attention to detail + all those new parts is rediculous. utmost respect to you and your girl for putting up with it.

i think he ment englishtown. i'm a bit dissapointed because its not looking good for honda day . the car is at my friends house and needs too much to be ready by sat. we are about a week off . but expect it to be done in the next two weeks. we will be thrashin well into the night to get it done. i have a new born on the way so it needs to be done asap anyway.

blahhh that's cool man.

i've seen a few done by hand and they were amateur at best. I've also seen some done by a machine and those look good but it always seems like there could be a lot more material taken off.

o well i will be hand porting mine this winter anyways cuz i dont fee like coughing up $300+ for an edelbrock
