Perfect, just asking so those that might believe or not believe this will actually know. and they can confirm this as well with a call.
No harm intended.

Do they just use this in place of the clay that other companies use to smooth the port entry??
There are so many variables that go with flowing heads it really is silly to shop flow numbers IMO.
Ai doesn't use a pipe, AFR does ect ect, there is just too many different ways to do it.

You can't go wrong with Port Pros, Elliotts Portworks or the other non sponsor mentioned. If you have attention to detail on the rest of the set up (CAI, TB size, ported intake, big headers, good exhaust and GOOD tuning), you will see good results from any of them.
If it all goes in a car with a good 60 ft, you will get good track times and if the car has some weight reduction, it will be even faster.
There are ALOT of ways to lose HP and end up with a slow car and the difference in any of the heads mentioned will NOT be the deciding factor.
Call each of them and see what parts are used at what price and how quick the turnaround time is and then decide who you are most comfortable with.

After going over the email from Ai about using 'wood' on the flowbench, I realized it was not wood and was 'clay' instead.
Its most likely the same process of molding to the clay to the intake runner, as stated before with the wood.
And Lloyd,
Nice of you to Join us as a Sponsor on LS1Tech

Really you will be happy with any one you choose. I have yet to hear a bad story from any of these guys.

Just my .02 but I believe that the reason why I am putting down such good numbers is due to my Port Pros Heads. Cause its probably not from my baby hotcam lol. I always support port pros, great guys and great work.

Lol. That "other non sponsor" was YOU for so long. Now you wont even mention their name. Irony.
But I agree with everyone else, all good porters. Variances, but all good.
