Milled Intake Base....... Original Heads & Block
I was thinking about buying an intake off the boards here but the seller milled .030 off his block to get a 0 deck height.....
Which means that the intake base would have been milled too......(a small amount)
How much problem would I have using this intake on a block that hasn't been milled before........ We are only talking .030 !!!!!! Shouldn't be a problem should it??????
I'm thinking about ports and bolt holes....... as well as the match to the block.........
I hope someone can clear the air!!!!

Alright..... the intake was milled .015" on each side because the block was decked .030"
I was checking out what .015" looks like on my mic and it looks very minimal as you can imagine...... But I gotta ask if there would by problems because like most people, I can't afford to buy something that is useless to me..... Does anybody see any fitment problems with using this intake?
