im going to port my front mani this week maybe tonight
i looked for a write up but didnt find any thing

You'll basically just want to run the dremel down as far as you can...and make the "primaries" or ports, if you will, as big as you possibly can.

ok good deal i have a compressor and die grinder so should rip through it just need to get some bits and sanding drums

and then hopefully my exhaust guy wont charge me to much for the down pipe
ill probably heat wrap it aswell
 
You can weld metal to the bottom of the outlet so you can port it more.

The real restriction is farther down in the tube I believe.
 
Decided to pull the from off and work with it a bit
heres a few pics not done just yet but have to go get some paint and a gasket

SHould i do aluminum spray or black? I know black will look stockish and aluminum will look a little better in teh engine bay hmm any opinions
 
screw your opinions anyhow lol I got aluminum its all thay had in a header spray and im getting the gasket tomorow actually wasnt bad other then my poor compressor cant keep up with the die grinder
killed one large grinding bit and 3 sanding drums but its all smoothed out and opened up now

I still dont know why people port the stock manifold, its been proven that the restriction is not in the primary ports, its the collector is too small, and you cannot port that unless you cut it open and thats a waste of time.
 
It wasnt that bad of a job and there is restriction at the ports im not going for a perfect mani i just figured cut down on the restriction any where i could

AT the very worst i wasted an hour of my day not a big deal
