Tried searching - results too general

I am posting up to ask if anyone here has seen gains after siameseing thier STOCK runners. Assume that the plenum is siamesed and port matched to the siamesed STOCK runners.

A worthwhile endeavor? I mean, we are all familiar with a fully ported plenum picking up about 2rwhp throughout the powerband, and port matched STOCK runners helping a smidge more. However, would siameseing those runners pick up even more? Or has the bottleneck moved to the STOCK base at this point? (the point where the plenum is ported and the runners port matched)

Phew! Sorry I'm longwinded at times.

Aren't you looking at cutting and welding the runners to achieve a siamesed "stock" runner? I believe so...

Is that the only way to do it? I thought the stock runners could be siamesed like 1/2" down w/o breaking through to the outside.

Am I wrong?
