Default Porting intake

Any tech papers on porting the stock 5.0 intake?
I know a replacement one would flow better, but I have a spare upper and lower sitting here.

its not the flow so much as the whole runner design on those that sucks.
porting doesnt do much for poorly shaped and designed runners.
Mostly the lower manifold, very poor flow distribution, some get a lot more
air than others.

Porting the lower will help it alot. Check out Tom Moss Porting. Lotsa good stuff there...
