I think my GT-40 has a crack somewhere cause I cant anyother place for my vacuum leak that whistles loud at idle. I am lookin for the best intake with my set-up. Was lookin at trick flow or just gettin a Cobra cause I probably wont be doin anymore upgrades to this engine. Im open for any suggestions

302 with gt-40x heads
E cam with 1.6 rr
MSD distributer 6AL and coil
24# injectors BBK rails+reg, and 190 pump
BBK 70mm throttle body BBK CAI wit 77mm MAF sensor
BBK ceramic equal length headers BBK high flow catted X SLP 1's

 

My favorite intake for the street is the GT-40 Tubular intake, is that what you had or did you have the explorer intake?

 

the cobra and trickflow are probably the cheaper routes and both good performers for the street. i really like the looks of the new black powder coated rpm 2 but its quite a bit more moeny then the cobra

 

Are you sure you don't have a supercharger hiding under there? Also, before upgrading intakes, make sure the upper intake is properly sealed to the lower intake. I had that problem a couple years ago. Car idled like it had a massive cam. Also, for some reason I also had a crack in the upper part of the intake. Luckily it was small and I had it welded. I was kind of bummed because I was looking forward to buying a Holley Systemax. I think thats a pretty good intake.

 

EDELBROCK OR HOLLEY......OR anything else but POS BBK SSI

 

for your upgrades typhoon is really good i had one on my car and i made 460rwhp with it. so thats not to bad..... i like it and i think there better than cobras or gt-40s plus more air flow. but mj is right holley and edelbrock are great.... but typhoon for the price is not a bad choice..

 

Holley Systemmax

 

Yes I have the tubular gt-40 it is sealed very good trust me ive done it 3 times. i bought it used and it has always whistled i had a Cobra before with no problems. I am also goin for looks mine is black powedercoated but i want to polish whatever one I get. I was lookin at trick flow but not sure on the street or track. Also wondering if it will clear my strut brace

To save even more money, I'd advise going for an old Explorer intake instead of the Cobra intake. I know... it's only a MINOR difference, but the Explorer intakes are slightly better through the midrange and they are cheaper than the Cobra intakes (usually.)

 

Holley systemax is the best, plus its perty.
