Stock ported Intake and TB on Heads/Cam Car

Hey guys, I have a 18ss 6speed car with TSP ported heads, VVT3 cam, TSP headers, Rotofab etc. Currently have the stock intake and tb which I'm sure is a extreme bottleneck on my setup. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a msd intake to send to Pray for porting. I do however see pray ported stock intakes and tbs for sale from time to time. Would it be worth spending 500 bucks on a factory pray ported intake/tb combo for my car? Or should i just wait for a msd or hiram to become available?

If you plan on changing or cutting your factory hood, wait for the hi ram, otherwise your best bet its either msd or waiting for the new Texas speed intake manifold to be released .

I didn't even know TSP was producing an intake for the LT... so probably not worth it to installed a ported stock intake and tb?

If you can find a used MSD for under $900 would be worth the wait. I even think for heads/cam like you.... Pray and others have said MSD is better at that point than ported stock.

Yup, they're pricey which was a main motivator that steered me away from a naturally aspirated build. Keep looking they come up now and then or wait a bit for TSP.
