Would it be worth it to open up the hole inside of the truck intake?

Thats pretty cool. I wish they were more to look at from the outside. The car intakes are way cooler in that regard.

Have any more photos? Maybe some of the sections that were cut and epoxied? Just curious which contours the LS2portworks guy cut along... Not that I'd ever attempt that on my own, seems more intimidating to me personally that hand porting some heads I've done before!

Nope wasnt me lol I bought the last one portworks did brand new

This is all i got for now..ill try to snap a few more this weekend if ya want..
FWIW im running the 78>90mm tb adapter on it right now..

ah ok, you happen to know what kind of epoxy they used?
By the color, it doesn't appear to be the Splashzone that Tony Mamo has used and recommended...

oh, did you get the intake manifold from ribierojj, too, with the TB? No that was a reg. OE intake manifold...
The one I was talking about that I thought andrew383 got was also cut apart and "ported" by a guy on here, then epoxied back together... His price was NOT a tight budget price.
