Ported intake
Ported intake I ported my intake and it looks great but I need some suggestions on how to make sure I get every little shaving out of my intake. I see some inside and I did blocked it off the best I could but i got some in my intake.
Can I soak it in something or spray water in there? I tried to vacuum it out and sprayed some high power air in side which helped out a lot.
Then after I get it out, I am going to paint it which I used a wire brush and rag plus some break cleaner which worked amazing.

If the intake is dry they should come out with compressed air.
Its off the car I am assuming?
Btw for your mods 58mm and a ported intake isn't needed. The stock intake is know to be good for like 450hp+.
Its a great designed piece.

well its not dry its got the carbon deposit, I believe that's what it is, also it looks wet inside so they will not come out easy
Yes its off
what do you mean its not needed? I mean its not going to help me a ton but it will help me a little. Its nothing like It would be if the intake was ported and I had a cam etc.

A stock 48mm throttle body flows 783cfm.
A 350 consumes ~516cfm at 6000rpm at 85% VE, at 100% (not gonna happen) it needs ~607cfm.
Even at 7000rpm (PCM limit) it only needs ~602cfm.
The 94 up MAF sensor flows 719cfm without a screen.
As I said a stock untouched intake manifold has supported over 450hp.

I'd carb spray it and try to clean it with like a wire brush or a tooth brush in there. Then let it dry and try to get them out.

Thanks for the great Idea guys! I appreciate it.
I bought a bunch of parts off a guy i knew and he only mocked it up to the car so then he threw that in with the parts as well so I said I might as well use it. We will see what it does to my car, plus my car has always had slow throttle response.
