Early 5.7 Hemi head porting

Makes sense. I guess the only real reason would be to run some other intake and if you plan to keep the stock one why worry about it.

Pretty sure there is some interference between the non-Eagle block and the Eagle intake anyway so only thing it would open up is if you wanted to run a 6.1 intake.

Since this isn't the end all build, better to keep it simple.
Exactly! I'm trying to limit purchases for this that won't transfer over to the bigger displacement G3. The intake being one of them. I'd love to have a 6.1 intake, and I do look for them, but all the ones I come across people want $900-1000. That's a big no for me.
