I have thought about sending off my Injen intake and Intake Manifold for this.

Intake honing

I had That done on my 5.0 mustang cobra intake picked up about 11 hp and 9 ft pounds of torque at the wheels but I have heard of even better results, might need to bump the timing a bit though the 5.0 gained another 10 hp by going 2 degrees higher then before the intake honing, if raised before the intake honing it didn’t make any more power the base timing of 14 degrees.
