You can't really port a ls6 intake as it's one peice. Besides, I don't think anyone has seen any results by messing about with them like this.

TPIS offer a 90mm conversion which has seen some good gains, but a FAST 90/90 will still outperform it.

I've ported my ls1 intake a tiny bit. Just make sure you have a good shop vac to get all the shavings out of the intake. I basically just port matched my heads and intake. Around the mouth of the intake, there were a few spots I worked on but nothing major.

By the way, since it's a plastic material, a sandpaper roll of any kind will get clogged really easily. It would be best to get some kind of metal bit.
