New intake
« on: February 11, 2016, 11:26:14 pm »
Dropping a fresh rebuilt 350 into my 87 this weekend but don't want to put the stock intake back on. What is the best intake to run w my 4 barrel carb that's still decent price wise. Thanks in advance for your help

I got an edlebrock performer intake when I rebuilt my big block it was like 250 brand new but that was for a bbc a sbc intake might even be cheaper look around I know there was one on Facebook by me used for like 50$ a little while ago but if you get an aluminum intake use never seizes on the treads steel bolts don't get along well with aluminum threads

do you have a dyno sheet on the rebuild? its best to have all your parts working together so if youre heads are good for one rpm range your cam should match that rpm range and so should the intake.
