#73383 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13499 Odo ported manifold pics 9 Months, 1 Week ago   I took a couple pics of the manifold that Odo ported. Hard to get pics inside there so this is the best I could do. One thing to note is that he didn't make any effort to smooth things out. Even on the metal.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73386 RSCstar1602 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 136 Re:Odo ported manifold pics 9 Months, 1 Week ago   Nice Pics, I'm holding a new stock manifold in my hand and you can see how oblong the round passage from the carb becomes as you round off the corners. Helps me visualize what I plan to do I could not tell you the latest thinking, but in the early 1980's I did some head porting and the word then was polish the exhaust side if you want(helps prevent carbon buildup), but leave the intake side rough to prevent air-fuel separation.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73412 Cougar (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2829 Re:Odo ported manifold pics 9 Months, 1 Week ago   When I was asking for opinions on taking my manifold to the metal I was told by all I asked not to polish the metal or worry with the rubber being smooth...Coug   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73423 Curt (User) Never to old to ride!

Smooth is a bad thing here.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73578 Gram (Admin) Musky took my beer!

The metal inserts are a pretty good match for the heads, take too much and you will have "steps" going into the head that the air will have to go over.
