You should have them flow tested.

In my opinion it's not possible to do more than a simple polish and gasket matching properly without a flowbench. If you're not using a flowbench, you're just guessing. 'Bigger' is not better for all cases.

Yea I read up alot on PNP jobs, and they said a port match will do alot better then just matching up the intake and head together. Yea i know its kinda lumpy imma try and smoothen it out and see how it comes out. Keep the comments going I wanna know what ppl think and tips or info.
