Default stock manifold

Can the stock manifold handle 20 psi of boost or does it need to be upgraded and which one do you recommend?

Trick Flow and Professional Products make decent ones. I'm sure there are others out there I'm not thinking of.

I'll be running the trickflow track heat eventually. For 20psi I'd consider running the oval tb style intake, you might get a decent gain with that kind of boost.

can i get away with stock for a while running 20 psi, i actually cracked my original intake because the car overheated but the new manifold is a plastic composit with i guess steel around the insert so it does not crack. Can i go with this for a wile or am i asking for it.

From what I've heard that's been in the works for a very long time. So long that most people will probably s**t their pants if it ever comes out.

I'm not sure what would be best, but i hear a lot of good things about the Eldelbrock intake.

well if you want to find out if the stock can handle 20psi the try it, what kind of f/i are you going to put on the car and what kind of short block are you using?
