Advice noted...
Its a very smooth transition from the intake to the head ports.
I removed allot of material like you said to smooth it out .
The pic's below are still the dry runs.
But let me run with it for now as the intake has been assembled
Thanks for the input

I wanted to go with a high compression low boost setup, but was advised against it... But yeah my only reason was I could get a custom set of 84mm 9.5:1 Wiseco's with Total seal rings and High Heat coating for $400 - bargain and a half

these two illustrate what I am talking about look at the entrance to the port. See how sharply it diverges to the gasket line.

Stock on the Ca18det inlet is 7,5mm .
8,5 mm is right for the limit, But they are special lifters
