I have my buddys Ported and polished TFS intake in the garage. I will have to take a pic and post it up for you. I can't believe how far off the intake ports are.

The thing only I noticed with mine is that they had a ways to be ported to match the size of the gaskets. I wish I would have taken a pic with the gaskets

Have you had time to get a pic?

Hey I was really interested in that pic?

Well I shortened the oil fill and made a bracket to use the 98 cobra accelerator cable. I also put the bung in for the idle control valve in the oval to round pipe the goes to the throttle body. I did it the same way i did the last 2. Just drilling, taping and JB welding lol. It's ghetto. But it works.

Original oil fill


Modified oil fill to make room for the new placement of the oval throttle body.


Homemade accelerator cable bracket before paint. First 2 holes on the t-bracket line up to the holes on the intake mount and the third makes a great place for the return spring.



Painted


Homemade ghetto pipe. It's just a steel 4.5" to 4" exhaust pipe that was squeezed in a press to oval the 4.5" side. Then drilled and thread in the brass fitting.

95% done still need to finish putting the belt on, fill with fliuds and change oil, and put the the 2 pipes from the SC to the inlet of the intercooler.

About a hour or two tomorrow and I should be done. Damn this has been a long project. Mostly because I had to fab a lot of little stuff and I did it all by myself, since my son is away at school. I have a retune scheduled for april 3rd.

That's what happens when you give a redneck a dremmel and some poxy lol. I should have used black though. I'm just going to take a black marker and go around the edge.
