Re: LT5 Assembly Project
Wait til you see the pics of the head. I stopped by and dropped off a intake valve at the shop, took some pics of the heads and will post them tonight.
For $800.00 Valve job, reshaped the ports, cleaned up the combustion chambers, blasted the intake runners, and pulled out the cross threaded IH bolt out...this required him to reconstruct the area.....I don't know how the prior owner could have gotten the bolt in like that. Only issue was the new lifters I bought on ebay are too tall and will not work...but my old ones are in great shape. Before and after pics tonight.

Re: LT5 Assembly Project
Nice but I'd still open up the primary runner for all the hassle you're going thru.

Re: LT5 Assembly Project
I think there is plenty of flow as is....need to consider one side was over 40mm at the top
Both sides are ported I am not drilling for oil or anti-freeze
