strip,
Porting the intake certainly helps. You don't have to worry about the top of the ports much but the bottom and sides could really use a nice blend. The bottom can really improve if you really blend the bottom corners of each port, they can be laid back quite a bit.
If you think that IC is big, you should see the MOAC! It's the Mother after all!
Keep up the good work.

Hey Strip!
I check this thread about once a week, but I don't post because I am not a motor builder. Nevertheless, with all the work, thought, and attention to detail you are putting into these, I'd take a ride with your "grenade" engines anytime. Looking very good, man.

Thanks Guys ..After mocking the heads and intake up there is a pretty good bit of head hanging into the port at the top of the runner . With the block being cut so much and a little on the heads I am going to cut the head intake surface. I am also going to have to do some blending like Dustin said to get everything matched up.I guess there is a little core shift?
SpeedJunkie the bolts and studs will rust the end threads completely off. Remember it also eats the bottom threads in the block also.I remember having the same problem on my old Scarab blower motor. I think ARP said ya only need 8 threads grabbing on them . I had to buy a new block on the Scarab. Probably a good thing at over 800hp
Thanks
Rob
