i was wondering if i could take the intake manifold(between the carb and the header) and bore em out a bit, if that would affect performance any?:devil:

Depends on if your carb is stock and if your head is stock port. If so it probably wouldnt help much.

Ya but if his head is stock port then it will not help him any.

right...... but his question was is it possible to bore and the answer is yes, but yes it's pointless to do it unless you have had the head opened up :o

yeah you can, only do it if you have ported your head, port the boot to match the ported head. pics-
