I believe the 2 part he is refering to is in a syringe and as you push it out it mixes and then it hardens in a few minutes. You can find this at auto parts stores and Walmart and such. But, not today you cant Why are you porting an LS6 intake anyway. I dont believe there is any hp to be found there.

I got bored and thought i would smooth some of the casting bumps out,and wala it was thinner in one spot than the previous hole.It isn't a major hole just about the size of a ink pen head no biggie....thanx for the reply.
