I ran across this thread:

Would the epoxy area be worth the time?
I'm in the middle of porting mine and was curious.

I usually don't epoxy the port jobs. Some people have had the epoxy pop loose.

I epoxied mine, I made sure to scuff it up real well
and solvent cleaned it to ensure the JB-Weld could
grab.

The Web docs may tell you to drill a 3/16" hole. This
is way too small, go 3/8" all the way to the inner IAC
channel to keep from picking up some RPM surge from
the passage being too small for the air demand.

Thanks guys for the advice.

This is interesting, I just did my lm7 TB today and I did my ls1 TB last summer.. I wonder what gains can be had by using the epoxy?
