Came across a deal on a broken Edelbrock performer intake(thanks Adam)...Jimmy took care of the broken part for me. I now run a ported explorer intake which made 325h 343t na 302 so I thought it would be neat to see if it will gain with the eddy. I lost track of the hours I put in it after about 25:lol: Might be a little while before it makes it back to MD but I'll post the results. Here is some pics of the porting.

damn, that is nice ... you did some serious polishing ... wish i had your patience ...
i say 335 hp / same torque ... i doubt if your old explorer was outflowing your heads, so i think the eddy is going to pick you up :bigthumb

As much time as I had in cleaning and prepping I should have let Kenny powder coat it:lol: Probably wont last near as long as his work either.
