great responses here! I'm actually stuck on this exact same situation haha. I was looking for machine shops in my area today to do the machining on the runners side of my euro r manifold to open up that top area.

T-Cut and a bog brush. It'll take some time, but oOOOooooh the finish!

Bog brush haha that would be fun, I guess you could use a dremel but would depend on how much your taking off as to how many weeks the job would take lol

I do pipe bore matching and porting most the time for work so a inlet is no different and use of all their air tools is perfect!

I port matched my inlet manifold with a grinding tool and various buffers in a Dremel. The grinding tools made short work of it...

For my injectors a countersink tool in a drill worked perfectly and I blended it all in with a Dremel...

Thanks for posting mate. Can I ask what the inlet is bored out to in those pics?

Definitely looks like the max you'd want to go before running into potential trouble. Tidy work mate!
