Default Intake manifold porting

I got a L9H and just cammed it. I am wanting to do a ported intake manifold, kinda like what peakspeed did on their radical ported intakes. They seemed to have closed down and I'm looking for someone that does that kind of porting.
My other option is port it myself, is there anyone out here that has split the intake and ported it out?
Or last buy a different manifold, only issue there is I need it to clear the truck accessories and have a 1500-6500 operating RPM range, and don't really want to spend FAST kinda money.

Is it Chuy? From my looking that's all I can really find. Looks like I'd have to resurrect my facebook to talk to him though.

Tony Mamo at Mamo Motorsports does that, my nephew just installed a ported intake and throttle body from him.

Chuy responds on Instagram. Buddy of mine got a ported NMBS intake from him. I got to finger it and it’s pretty nice and smooth

It only took me a year! I bought an additional intake manifold a year ago and forgot about it and finally sent it out to Chuy. I had him port it out and he did a 90mm TB at the same time. I got them installed and it made a huge difference on drivability, they gave me more on the top end and made the driving in stop and go so much more refined. The drivability is back to almost stock after the cam.

did you retune the computer for new parts?

and if it drives better, your previous tune was wrong.

more top end, yes i agree, i got the same with bigger manifold and throttle body on my personal vehicle.
