Well on my buddies 331 same head ports lined up great! The main thing is the efi plate nitrous kits, edl canned there vic plate design, NX has a kit for 1000$ the tfx kit for the r series is only 700$. Im driving the car daily so i wonder about the vic low end drivability?

the 347 will negate any low end power issues
like adder said it wont be an issue, and how often do you keep the car below 4000 when your racing?
wont make a difference...
