The thing about port/polish on the L head is that I really don't think it improves that much. You've got a lot of factors working against you, especially the whole "exhaust manifold heating the intake manifold" thing. makes it a real challenge to keep a cold air charge.

I had people shit bricks when I told them my s10 was the 2.8. They thought it was a 305 or 350 by the sound. I can't even believe how good it sounded. all it was was factory headers, into one, 2.5 I think, then a flowmaster right before the bed. That sombitch rumbled.
