Accufab is a high quality product for sure , about how the car idled shouldn't change , it just does not really flow more than a stock ported tb . I have already disclosed enough info about the port job .

I bought my intake from a Corvette guy that said it was a Lingenfelter ported LS6 intake, paid $360 shipped, had a nice silver metallic base/clear coat on it, I called Lingenfelter and asked them about that service and they said they basically do the same things that New Era has listed. I don't know what my actual gains were as I did everything all at once, but I do know that I have decent numbers for a 98 and the car runs great!

Guys sorry I really don't know what could have happened I wasn't able to find the ones I searched everywhere and came up with nothing Perhaps there was a another reason but I can't seem to land it at the moment Anyway I totally don't think it made a difference for the only reason I know there were some somewhere Its now over many years and I haven't the first idea where to find them I had one of the front and others from the side and there were many in my office and a few from the owner but there was one that had a fabulously stupendous effect something that displayed the true composite component in addition to the aftermarket customization and I don't know what happened to it where it could be where I might of put it or what the heck I did with it.

Wow, that was painful reading. I'm not even sure where you were going. Could you try it again with a little more punctuation? Was this post in reference to a ported LS6 intake?Ben T.

I recently smoothed out the back side of the tb throat to try to get a little better distribution to the front cylinders. The passenger side needed the most.
The driver's side broke through at the top pretty quickly and had to be epoxied. About the 2:00 position looking into the front of the tb. Probably could have left that area alone in the first place.
I used a little round rasp, a drum-looking tool a little bigger around than a pencil, in a die grinder.

so the TB throat is the most suitable gains seen? or are the runner ports indeed in need of porting? may i aks why your runners were a little unever it seems in the porting. ?

How Thin can I safely go without risking the integrity of the manifold?
