Darin, was doing ebay ads and stuff...
An email from him (though I've not been in touch recently)
Hi Rafael,
Porting an edelbrock base can add gains of 30-40 hp on a stock engine, depending on how much porting is done. If you have other mods or plan to have other mods you'll see even more gains. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
Darin

Re: anyone port tpi bases?
Darin stopped doing port work just recently. He had a FB post letting people know, and I wasn't able to find his adds on Ebay (obviously). ...I don't know if it was just temporary while he catches up or tends to other things, or if this is permanent.
....it's ironic too, I talked to him last spring, but held off so I could afford heads. I bought the heads, then looked him up and couldn't find him.
...by dumb luck I found a guy selling a OE base that Darin had done, and I scooped it up right away. port work is gorgeous. Very talented guy. Uh, sorry....not trying to rub it in. Hopefully he'll come back!
