Well now that I got your attention I will tell you that it was just a false alarm. Why I really called you in here is I was wondering if you guys wanted to get together a V6 meet around the middle part of the eastern side sometime next year when it warms up like around may? I think it would be a good idea. Anyone idea?

BTW to keep it tech: seriously would it be a better idea to port and polish the heads, port and polish the intake, or get a comp cam? How much would it cost to port and polish the intake? Thanks

hey if you swing over to st.lou I;m in.

Do the heads and cam thats where the big gains are. The other stuff might give you 3-5 hp. I;m guessing the head/cam would give you 20-25 hp.

Remember that Fiero guy? I think he said he found the biggest restrictions in the intake manifold, and not the plenum/middle intake. The heads would be the better idea; but it might not be too easy to do if the car's a daily driver.

a meet up would be cool. i mean i am all the way up here in CT, but i'm sure it would be cool to get together for a weekend

Project: 85 2.8 bird

I have access to a spare intake set up & will experiment with that.

Why not invade the T/A natl's they have up here, or get intouch with those who operate it (hmmmm it's held in dayton, I'm in dayton, hmmmmm)

Hmmm... a weekend together eh, sounds like this is going to need alot of planning, as well some of Us *coug Cough myself* would probably not be able to venture on such a trip... lol. But the Idea is good, and if planned out, starting now I can see quite a Turn-out...

Oh yes, polish the Intake its cheap
