its really not worth the hassle unless you spend alot of time boring out the runners and plentum. i ported a y8 manifold, took several hours and several dremel bits...all for 1-2 hp+

You'll be much happier getting a manifold like said above.

Yeah, I ported my LS with a dremel when I was bored and had it apart, not worth it.

I paid $100 to get my y8 Manifold port match & ceramic coated. It made my Turbo happy
