I sure have my friend, the medium request for slurry is an option, the stock
$600 intake push is not fine grain.
Therefore the walls are not like mirrors, unlike the fine slurry they have.
But I still guarantee the medium slurry they used
still made much more power than the rough walls you mentioned earlier, would
you agree? Once upon a time they would even do a bowl port on heads before
pressurizing them and then they would put them on the flowbench (not
Pennsylvania but California) to include a fine slurry run. Now, they are
unconcerned with that, they will push whatever you send them with one
medium, unless you request different. If you paid less than $600 for the
intake push for those rustangs, then I can guarantee you they did one push
with medium grain slurry. I could be wrong though...
