Seriously, I would send this out to a pro to get it done.&nbsp I've tried to polish my intake manifold myself, and it was NOT worth the hassle...

I don't own a FC but if it is anything like the FD manifold the inside is just round. It would be fine to grind those spots off. I've done several Fd manifolds.

I bolted on some block off plates I quickly fabbed over the gasket areas and shoved it into a polisher, then took it out and went at 'er with a wheel for an hour or so. Only works if you have access to an industrial size polisher though....
