Re: manifold machining



I AM CORNHOLIO!!! Leastways I have TP for those bungholes... ;-)
And there is no way Cornholio could drill straight enough to line up 2 lines
of 4 bungholes in a straight line and correct angle... :-)
Even with a Bridgeport it would be a serious strain on my milling skills...
Haven't used one since 1994.
I'm going in for some surgery tomorrow, but when I get back and Dave W. gets
my intake(thanks again, Dave!), I'll be back looking for tips on getting a
'730 to idle with a 230/240 @050 cam, and 36 lb injectors. Actually have
12-13 in of vacuum with the Rhoades lifters in that beast too (455 Pontiac).
Thanks guys for the tips and the humor!
Tom
