Default best performance intake manifold ?

im looking to get a new intake manifold .. and tb 75- 80mm set up ..

looking for the best performace one available cost is not too important ....

i been looking at the bbk ssi and ssi-r
anybody run these?

looking for sumthing with good low end and massive high end .. maybe up to 6500rpm .. after all other valve train is on ..

whats the most power full manifold at the moment ?
i love how the bbk ssi looks but its not that importand ...

the motor will be stock with gt40 or patriot heads medium cam and valve train ..

Trick flows are nice, and you could always go with a Cobra I/M.

Performer 5.0's from edelbrock are nice, and because they have a removable back plate the runners can be ported n ****

id reccomend NOT getting a typhoon, my friend got one and half the bolts sheared off

hey there i would say that for what your lookin at doing with the nitrous a holley systemax or edelbrock rpm 2 would be ideal .

and as a matter of fact i just removed my rpm 2 bought new with only 550 miles on it as im swapping to carb so if you are interested pm or let me know.

if money were no object, jt has the right idea - holley systemax. with provisions to prevent starvation its hard to beat.
