Hi,

A friend of mine is running one. Besides being every so slightly different, it is almost an exact match to the Edelbrock RPM intake. It's a solid piece. I recommend doing a little deburring and cleaning up the ports slightly before bolting them on, that's all. Offered in the satin and polished. You really can't beat it for the price. Let me know if you have any more questions.

I heard they were almost the same as edelbrock. My friend has one on a 306 with procharger (12lbs) and he is very happy with it. Just my 2 cents.

I have one, it made a big improvement over the stock one, but they are pretty crapy castings, the ports arent the same size, I used a carbide burr to gasket match the ports.
it took mabye 4 hours total.
overall, the time it took me to fix their casting, was well worth the money saved.


if you have the patience to gasket match it then get it,
