Question Porting the intake

I have ported heads and I was wondering if porting the intake is worth the trouble. How much HP can be expected if porting the intake?

not enough to justify doing it-
just make sure its gasket matched to the intake runners

More gains could be had if you internally modified the intake. It doesnt hurt to port it but make sure its gasket matched to the heads. Bauer Racing modified my intake internally for my stroker and heads...
