So pretty much for it to be ported my car would be down for a while so it can be ported correct?? And sorry for your lost. Also I'm starting a channel for budget builders like myself and I'm trying to cover just about everything and wondering should I cover anything else or post videos or pics of anything before I get my exhaust, TB put on?

There were so many projects that I didn't think to make videos out of. I do porting mainly on motorcycle cylinder heads but I did port my intake manifold and intake port runners on my LLT.
I took some pictures and made a slide show.
It's the same old saying, "if I knew then what I know now".
Also check out some of the videos I did make for motorcycles.
These days , any time I do a porting project, I make a personal video so the customer can see his project being done and show it to his friends.

Yes, Ruben stated that if you send him your TB along with the intake manifold ,they can port both for 300.00 dollars. He said that normally they can do a TB and intake manifold both with a 24 hr turnaround. So if you overnite it to them, and overnite it back to yourself , it would be 3-4 days or so . He said that they would need to make an appointment and arrangements so as to have it all lined up for a 24 hour turnaround . Thanks for the condolences, it's appreciated.

Thanks man, it's been tough, I very much appreciate it. I've posted pics of some of my Fathers favorite cars that he owned in the General Automotive + Other Cars section of the forum, check it out if you want, in the old muscle car photos thread.

Would it be best to install the resonated X-pipe and the SLP axle back or it doesnt matter when I install them?

ive heard from a few people they have very little gain from downpipes. that it wasnt worth the money. solos are like $800... my goal was 300whp. im gonna dyno the car and see where im at. itll determine if i decide to get downpipes or not. the car hauls ass.
