Anyone know of anything online explaining/illustrating the process of match porting the intake manifold to the head?
Did a search and found references to it, but nothing pointing to more info. I know HVWs did an article about it awhile
back, so if anyone knows which issue, that'd help, too.

Thanks!

check with nsracing. he has templated you can use to match the ports to your intake. use the template that matches your heads, use machinist blue (dykem) and the scribe the pattern on the intakes. Then use your die grinder to open up the port to the lines you made. Smooth it back in about halfway up the port so the transition is easy.
