Have you had a chance to port and polish the manifolds?

No. Had some drama happen at work and have been working non-stop. I also need to run my compressor to do that and can't when it's raining. I have no garage.

Nah just someone else with serious problems. Me and the other guy had to cover her shifts, but mostly me. I'll take the money though.

Have you swapped out your manifold yet? I am curious about a measurement when you do.

Decided "F**k you weather, I'm starting the porting on these LDK manifolds."

During: Better, but not good enough!

Stay tuned. Hopefully I can get one of them done by tomorrow. One of my V8 heads took 16 hours, but it was cast iron. Hopefully this aluminum will be better to deal with.

No, that would be too much for the LNF. Just smoothing it as much as humanly possible. Naturally the ports will expand as I smooth. Those marks are so I don't go overboard. I'm done with the first 2-3" of each port, but my mandrel broke. Each port has gone up in size about 1mm consistently. Tomorrow I will be working deeper into the runners after I get a couple more mandrel a to hold the sanding drums
