Hello, waiting to get my heads back from AHP (street port and polish) and wanted to port my intake manifold an tb as I have time to do any extra things. I decided to Retain my stock cam. Anyone done this, is there any DIY vids or instructions on doing this? I have a Dremel tool. Thank you!

I would have talked to Kohle and had him do everything for you since you sent your heads to him, I think his rates are very resonable.

I wouldn't touch a dremel to a stock intake. You are not a pro. Unless you are. It's worth the $$ for a real pro who knows where to put the dremel and knows where not to. You just don't smooth out every runner the same as the last one.

These heads and intakes flow so well from the factory that you have a better chance of screwing them up than making any improvements.

^ This.

Or take a look at peak speed shop...probably have stuff on the shelf ready to go so its just a quick swap out. https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...highlight=peak

I’m definitely not a pro and u are right. I couldn’t justify the $ AHP And don’t Think I will touch the intake I don’t want to screw it up and thanks for your Input. My budget simply ran out. I wanted the Moldstar guides and porting so maybe later I’ll do it. I WANTEthe I take and tb but ran out of $, it is
What it is. Just the peace of mind is going to be wonderful. I also wanted
PSI springs but oh well. Cheers thanks for reply!!

MS90 and PSI springs on a set of Kohle's heads here as well...definitely the right place to spend the money.

Best thing to do yourself with the intake is just remove the flashing left from the manufacturing process inside the ports. This is easy and impossible to screw up. No concrete proof it helps but smoother airflow can’t be bad.

You can always get a MSD when your budget allows if you find that you need more power.

I have a Faster proms (Formato) ported Ls7 intake. Yes it needed tuning after the swap. Yes the power is obvious everywhere. Roughly 20/20 peak. Every runner is totally different. Fascinating how good he is. Roughly same as a $900 FAST 102 out of the box for almost $600 less. All I needed.

MTPZ06

Yep...leave to he highly skilled, they're good at it. Especially TB's if you don't have experience, you can really screw things up.

hotrod03

Yes I would like to have the stock look

So how much for the porting $300?

American Heritage

We charge $300 to port the stock LS7 intake manifold.
$160 to port the stock throttle body.
$400 to port the MSD/Fast intakes.
