Day 4 VR6 Engine Tear Down - Porting the Intake_2

It's been a couple days since I had a chance to work on anything related to the car.  Yesterday Vinny and I bought and installed some cheap shop lights.  Nothing special just a little something to help when working in the garage at night.  I'll take the time to tidy up the cords this weekend.

So today I was able to finish the stage one porting on the lower intake.  Stage two will just even out the high spots from the aggressive burr used during stage one.

I was also able to get the upper intake manifold outlined with the gasket and scribe so hopefully I can get this done tomorrow after work.
Here are some pics of the upper intake ready to be ported;

As a reference I grabbed a couple shots of the complete intake and how it looks with the lower and upper intakes together.
