Something like this vs something like that is what you are referring to perhaps?

That’s exact it! Which one is best/better and why.
This I don’t know. I would option for less grinding because I don’t know. I can only make a suggestion to what the pro’s are doing and ask why and if I my application if it is good or not.
The top picture is what I was trying to describe and what I myself would do. Again, because I do t know for sure. It also leaves the option to remove more material rather than try and add it back in. The top picture is how other makes of intakes come OOTB. Or similar in look and design. At least in the above picture, (in addition to what I said above) the runners remain long/longer.
The bottom picture shows that there is more plenum. More or less plenum is also another question that may be best answered by your engine which of course may not be good for mine or Kim’ or etc.... I’m sure there is a reason to and not to do things like this. I have not the experience to make such calls and for sure, not to be sure. Is there a Benefit to adding plenum? I’m sure that’s combo dependent and application dependent. But if so, how much is too much and when is it not enough?
This is where things can get a little hairy scary. IDK what exact intake Kim has and if there a plenty or hard to find.
