Default Question about new heads and intake prep.

When I get my Edelbrock Performer RPM aluminum heads and RPM Air Gap intake should I do anything like port matching the intake runners to the heads or smoothing the intake throat?

should be OK, but check anyway.. make sure ports in the intake aren't bigger then the intake port in the head.. make sure everthing is clean :thumbs:

I would hope they would be almost a perfect match being the same company and same package (performer rpm).

Thanks guys just wanted to check and see if anyone else did any modifying to a similar setup or just bolt it on. I realy don't like the idea of cutting on brand new stuff. :eek:

Thanks
