I got them back from the powercoating shop last week.

Done in wrinke black to match my valve cover I had done last year and the lettering is in Mirror Red to match my intake tubing, also done last year.

I know you guys aren't into Aleros too much, but these intakes are P&P and smooth inside. The lower is a 2000 lower. this lower stock flows better than the 99 intake, ported, which I bought a ported 99 lower 6 years ago, back before this info was out.

Anyway. on a rough measuring of the intakes. where the lower and upper meet, the lower is about 1/16' of an inch bigger ports than the upper. The upper's TB opening is maybe 61.5mm vs the 62mm that the TB is, but I'm not sweating 1/2 a mm.

I know it's important to have the mani match the head, but the 2 manifolds? Should I take a dremal to the upper or not bother? Don't really know if the P&P upper and lower on there now are this way or not. I was really a n00b to modding cars back then, but the insides are SOOOOOOOOOOO SMOOTH, I know the ones on there now are not.

The car ran a best of 14.539 with the current P&P manifolds in which the lower is cracked slightly, causing a very small vacuum leak (my old mech did this, overtightened the bolts)

Anyway:::
