[Shotimes] Intake Goo

[Noack, Jason]

Where the hell does this come from???  My real question today is how
difficult is a motor mount to do, I'm pretty sure mine is gone.

If you have a compressed air supply just buy a $20 die grinder.

ATF keeps the carbide burrs from loading up.

A carbide burr with a steady hand can give a 16 - 32 RMS finish. That should
be good enough, unless you are going for a NASCAR porting job. Besides, in a
couple months the ports will again be covered with intake goo.
