Hi again Tom.

Yes, relieving the ports in the SC head would definitely be possible; plenty of material there for that. If I was working with heads not installed, etc. I would probably go that route. ' matter of fact, one of our fabricators, an old hot rod guy, says he can do it with the heads installed and not get any filings in the engine. Not a risk I want to take. This idea about using the 964 intake didn't come about until the long block was reassembled.

Also this route leaves the heads themselves stock. I don't know if that matters in the long run or not.
