Any ported blower inlet pic!!!

For letting port my blower by an engine builder here in Germany, I need pics from the inlet, so I can show him what to do, outlet pics I have enough.

What is about my C&L plenum??? Has the outlet of the plenum also be modified???

Wes is a Lightning Brother thats been porting these Eatons longer than everyone (except Apten). He's not a vendor, just a machinest that does it as a favor to his fellow L brothers, (not for free, but for a very reasonable $). He's been making his own Pulley's, Brackets, and many other Mod's for years for his Lightning, he's on his 2nd Gen II amof.

He does a job I feel is second to none, I was the one who named it "THE WASP" amof. Wes Aten Style Port Ya we had some fun with Brian at Apten back then with it, ah ha ha ha ...... I'm on my second one now, I had one and made the mistake of selling it when I bought the Mag, then needed it again and got a second one from Wes, and even know it's not on my truck anymore, I AINT SELLING IT, hehehehe

Mine puts down some AMAZING numbers, and for those that always lose TQ when they get a ported Eaton, NOT ON A WASP, 450/580 on mine which is nothing more than a Lightning with a 8lb Lower. As people always say in these post, it's not rocket science to Port an Eaton, BUT there are MANY out there that have done more harm than good. THERE IS AN ART TO IT ; o )

You can e-mail me if you need his e-mail address, rob3832@hotmail.com

it is hard to see, but i made it have a smooth transition from the inlet to the inside of the case. i completely took out the hard corners, and made them smooth transitions.
