Super Victor port matching

Andy F… Who posts on another Mopar forum a good bit, has designed and sold parts for Mopars, and is active in dynoing Mopars( especially big blocks) out West. Several years back had Wilson port a manifold for an already well flogged big block stroker he uses as a dyno mule.
Motor picked up like 30 horsepower after Wilson got done with it.
They most definitely know what they are doing, but, they certainly aren’t cheap.
If money was no object, I would send my heads and intake to them to have them sort out the intake to the heads.

I rarely read your post anymore since I put you on ignore but curiously got the best of me. So Andy picked up 30 horsepower for 2000.00. I’ll show you some testing on different intakes and before and after number. Now before I go to far a good gasket match probably accounts for 70% of the gains. First example will be a Speedmaster that I bought on sale to port and sell. I don’t particularly like dual planes but they have their place.

This is a 325.00 (at the time) job by a millwright turned head porter. How many horsepower should those numbers account for. There is no way in this world could I justify 2000.00 for any street car or bracket car.
