Pulled the coolant fittings tonight, as soon as the plugs show up from summit (thanks cliff) I'll drill and tap them.
Injectors are here.
Gaskets and starter are on the way. Thanks Jerry.
Soon as everything is assembled, we'll have a party.

Okay Steve. Not to be a PIA, but October 12, 2013 is out for me. That's a Saturday and it is Kerbeck's Toys for Tots day. Keep me in the loop, please?

:cheers:
Tom

Re: Ported Intake for Sale

I'm learnin' Dom. I'm hoping this pushes me to around 450 hp. I'll dyno it when I'm done.
Dominic, are you tuning for hire?

Re: Ported Intake for Sale

Couple of questions have come up.
Should I have all the mating surfaces machined true?
Should I put alignment pins in?
Comments from the peanut gallery?

You doing just top end? Secondaries? With only top end done, I had 399 to the wheels, so 450chp is very doable. Cams weren't phased.

Re: Ported Intake for Sale

Just the top end. Heads and cams will be later, and a tune.
I'm currently 353 at the wheels, so about 415 cshp.

The mating surfaces should be good to go, I hit them very lightly with a board sander just to clean them up, surface finish with these parts is not super critical like say the head to block mating surface.

The four corner bolt holes of the plenum have been sleeved to tighten up the alignment tolerances - they have almost no slop. I would suggest that you loosely attach the injector housings to the heads, set the plenum on top and run the corner bolts down a bit, then remove the plenum carefully as to not disturb the injector housings and then tighten down the injector housing bolts. This will insure a good alignment and minimize the chance of stripping bolt holes on the injector housings. Once you have the injector housings on and tightened down you can set them up for later if you want by drilling 2 1/8in dowel pin holes per side through the injector housings and heads, you can also do the plenum to injector housings the same way if you like. Here are some pics of what mine looks like.
