Well that's good to know on the intake. Probably just going to clean up any casting flash and call it good.
This new stuff is so user friendly. I remember when I was 17 and had a 327 in my 57 Chevy hardtop. I put in an Isky 300 duration cam with .480 lift. That's all the specs I remember. In those days (mid 70's) that was a big cam for the street. It's a good thing I had a Muncie 4 speed to get that heep moving. Now I'm going to be tooling around in something that has almost .600 lift with an auto and it will have good manners!
