Intake Manifold Preferences.

[broncoman6524]

my edelbrock performer is warped...back to stock till i can afford a new intake.

anyway, what does the majority perfer? i plan on runnin a dual plane square bore. This is sbc350. Its mostly my DD. I was thinkin either the air gap, torker 2, or weiand stealth

any suggestion? im not 100% sure as to waht im looking for. lol.

thanks guys

The torker will hurt low end. Ive run Performer's and currently RPM air gap. Its on a 383 with a 230 @ .050 cam and aluminum heads with 10:1 comp. The RPM shouldnt hurt torque and help HP. If you plan to keep everything stock Id stick with the regular Performer. Unless you plan to make over 300hp.

its already over 300...i got the 290 hp gm 350, with headers. and i figured with the intake it had and all it was around 325....or am i wrong?

stock, smoack lol. i dont really care i just want performance and reliability...kinda hard to get though...LOL

I believe those motors are rated with performance intake and exhaust. Maybe not, tho the manifold wont give you 30+ hp. But anyway, I would go Performer RPM. I havent seen/heard of much of a difference between a RPM and RPM air gap. Not making enough power. Im sure on some 500HP beast it would, or a drag car maybe. But ya I have one. And my 383 powered K20 is the power, and my stock 85 5.0 Mustang with 200,000+ miles has the reliability.

I would go Performer, not RPM unless you run above 5000 alot.

performer eps to help with torque.

I would take that one to a machine shop and have it trued up. This can't always be done, but usually can.
