Can you port a LS6 manifold? Is it even worth it?

Hey guys!
I have a stock ported TB. I can't afford money mods right now.
Would my combo benefit from this? full mod list
Has anyone done this? Pics?

A few do it, but I would say dont mess with it unless you know what your doing. Jay at Absolute Speed used to port LS6's, and TPIS offers a oval LS6 manifold, a long with several other sponsors.
Most just get the FAST 90mm and some port match it to their aftermarket heads.

I thought you were Scott. Everyone knows you're in the 12's.

I've had the EWP for almost a year with zero problems in 100+ days with the a/c on in stop and go traffic for hours. I drive 100 miles a week. Lucky? Maybe.
