From what I can see in the pictures, it looks like you only enlarged the opening at the flange. You will need to point the port towards the valve as illustrated in Bill Fisher's book. I believe there is some info on CLF as well. _________________ 1965 Beetle sedan

You dont want to polish the intake runners as it could cause puddling. Keep grinding away, you've got nothing to loose!
