I would tell you to do a search, but the wonderful search on my favorite website has been crap for the past month, and i't driving me crazy, I ported my own and a good write up for it is on here soemwhere, my recommendation is keep looking page by page til you come across one, i don't think there's one on ls1howto.com but you could check.

3 types of dremel bits...heavy medium and a buffer....

the lip right before the blade, you want to get rid of, you want to also buff down the edges on the sensor intakes.....keep the whole lip even....
