Here's a link I've bookmarked that I think is the one you're thinking about: http://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/F...ML/001492.html

This link has alot of useful info on making an adjustable f.p.r., polishing aluminum, porting the plenum, etc. No info on siamesing the base on this link, but some good info. http://www.gmtips.com/3rd-degree/dox/tips/tips.htm

I used an air die grinder with a nasty looking wood rasp type tool to do mine. You could use a dremel tool, but it would take 10X as long to do.

Enjoy.
