I have 89 formula l98 mods are cai ud pulley and air foil, also have ported plenum and ported stock runners, was wondering if porting the base is worth it, still have stock exhuast and heads and don't plan on changing them thanks any time soon thanks

 

Using stock runners etc., porting a stock intake would probably offer minimal gains in power / performance; whether or not the effort is 'worth it' is up to you (you could do it just for the fun / car time / experience).

What did the porting on the stock (oem?) runners consist of?

Im bought the runner plenum combo from aekasas polishing and was wondering if i should port the intake to match or is there not much f a gain thanks

i have been looking at your work and would love for you to do my base but money is to tight so was thinking of trying it myself not sure though

 

It's a lot of work! And without the right equipment it's impossible to do it right. You'd need an air compressor that'll keep up, die grinder, mandrels for cartridge rolls, non ferrous carbide bits, etc...
The carbide bits and mandrel has to be long enough to reach all the way through each port.
I can give you a deal if you want me to do it. Email at d.dochterman@mchsi.com if you're interested.
