Under the plenum:

Plenum with Jerry's gasket:

Injector housing with Jerry's gasket:

I'm not seeing very much difference in size between your ports and mine.
But on mine there is clearly a casting ridge inside the injector housing that doesn't appear in yours. It doesn't look like they removed much material, just polished out the rough stuff.
I would bet there's a good 25-50hp waiting to be discovered in your top end.

Your Cam covers look much better than mine. Mine are getting darker and darker.
This winter I'm sending the top end up to JeffVette for a P&P & powder coating, in his bright sliver. Was going to do it this last winter, but replacing the transmission ate up last years upgrade budget. I had the 2nd gear synchro catastrophically fail, it was cheaper to replace than to rebuild. *sigh*
