I'm going to share a pic... it's of work I did in 06/08... it was before I knew surface finish and effects...I was merely watching the flow numbers.
This is a victor 340.
It was flowed bolted to j heads that flowed 270's at the time and in this example is still restrictive..but that's not the point...the following is the point...
Ootb with it bolted to the head on the bench ..it only allowed 242-247 cfm.
After i did the small amount of work shown I the picture in conjunction with a tiny 7/16 spacer I also blended to the flange...it went 265-268 cfm. Keep in mind... you need it to flow with the heads. Any bigger then you need isnt necessarily helping your combo.
That's with next to no work, near zero in comparison with what I'm seeing you guys do without knowing where it ends up.
There is still much more left in this vic 340 intake to be had, no ****. My point is less is more sometimes...and if you cant measure it... where are you going to end up? If you start hogging away.. you're completely changing every last characteristic and it might be a toilet when you're done.
