Rick made it sound like he was pretty darn flexible with dates.

I just picked up an UIM for $24 (including shipping!) off ebay...so looks like I am in if early July is OK.
Think I will email Rick to clarify exactly HOW a non-honed, small port UIM will come out same as an SVT UIM..if he tells me they are going to Hone the non SVT part more aggressively then that would probably motivate me to send the non SVT part for Honing. If NOT, then the SVT part goes..

Get back to me on this Dan. I too am questioning the validity of this GB as the Duratec Performance forum has vague flow numbers for SVT UIM's.
People say the UIM SE ports wont match the SVT's including the TB opening. All very interesting and I'm still lost on how $320 is getting me 13cfm or 23cfm?

See my post in Duratec Performance "00SVT vs. SE pic's". I spoke to Rick at EH a good bit Monday about the whole process. He had not done a SE UIM yet so he couldn't say too much but sugested that I compair the two before I make a decission to send a SE instead of the SVT UIM...I sent the SVT UIM

I do want to get in on the action but can't justify it at this point. I do however have an extra se UIM lying around. If someone needs to borrow/buy it let me know.

No response but Scott got pretty much all the answers..posted in the EH post in "Performance".
Since they would run the SE manifold longer, it would presumably flow the same as if an SVT were used to start.
Looks like a potential problem with the t.body opening..on the SE UIM, it may expand into the EGR opening with the Honing OR be too small for the SVT t.body (a must for all with this mod)..Unless we know FOR SURE that the SVT t.body will work with the SE manifold I would not send it.
So, anybody modified an SE manifold to fit SVT t.body?

I've got an SVT TB housing. I could bolt it on tonight & take a picture to show the overlap at the manifold. That should show us how much material would be taken from the manifold if an SVT cover plate is used to perform the EH.
I'm curious to see if the EGR passages are exposed with the SVT TB in place on an SE UIM. I don't think I'd like that. If the difference in the actual TB openings is small, I don't think there'll be a problem. You guys know the measurements. Take 1/2 of the difference and compare it to the thickness of the material adjacent the passages.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Guys be sure to check out the Jet-Hot GB interest check SVT ST Pete and I are setting up...UIM's can be Jet-Hot coated for $77 plus shipping if the GB happens. With 12 or more we get a 30% discount off the regular cost of $110. I think Extrude Hone will send you UIM directly to Jet-Hot if you like according to Rick at Extrude Hone. This may save a few bucks off you shipping?
See GB for more details...
