reg edelbrock is prolly around the gt40. i have edelbrock victor jr 210's. and a 347 with all forged internals and a tf st2 going in. so bye bye gt40 but sorry dude, its already promised for now but you are third in line if the first 2 back out.
ORIGINAL: Ecstasy

so the edelbrock flows better then gt-40? i dont nkow what intake to get, and to the guy who has the gt-40 intake would you be interested in selling it? and if so how much? also id like to know what all do u have done to it to where u say its starving your engine. keep in mind imt alking about the regular edelbrock not the performer II RPM thing.

i was gonna get the street heat, but it requires a 75mm tb+ and i dont want to go that big. no point, biggest im going is 70 and i have a 65 on there right now.
I think you read that wrong....it's bored out to 75mm so you can run that size if you want. I'm running a 65 on mine.

yea but i dont want to do all that to my car. i just want to sit around 300rwhp. thats all and i want it to sound really nice, see my thing is im stuck on bbk shorty equal length headers, but as they say alot of heads you cant bolt them up to, which gt-40 heads can i bolt my bbk shorty equals up to? the gt-40ps? or does it have to be like gt-40x or something.

then i prob wont do heads, if the gt40p's wont allow me to put bbk equal length shortys then im not going to change my heads out, because i dont want to spend a grand on heads because i dont really want them anyways, so any clue which i can get for around 500-600 that are better then stock that will bolt up? maybe from a cobra?

look for some gt 40 X turbo swirl heads. and matchem up with a gt4o intake and E cam. thats a winning setup bro. the bbk will work with any gt40 head except P's, and theres no use in doing any intake or cam mods unless you get heads/
