1984 Trans Am, Intake Manifold.

Ok i took the Intake manifold off for the first time to see what it is like inside, the water jackets have a bit of gunk in them but nothing a flush wont fix.

All up it is not in to bad of shape im going to give it a clean out with some fine grade sand paper to smooth the ports up, just to see if it gives it a little improvement (doubtfull but while it is off might as well give it a try). Also in the next fue weeks i am getting my holley re-built and re-jetted at a carbie shop, that should fix all the little leaks and problems that i couldent fix myself.
It should also run a bit smoother once it is done :)

Here is a fue pics:

I also found out that i have 416 heads, With a mild port job and larger valves these heads can run just as good if not better than a aftermarket set.
Im looking in to getting a Weiland Stealth inlet manifold and a set of Block Hugger headers.
But this stuff will have to whate a little while.
