RE: intake manifolds....

You can spend the extra hundred if you want there is not much of a difference its just bassically the brand name is different.But the edelbrock supports nitrous so take that in mind.

RE: intake manifolds....

thanks for all the input guys, i think im gonna go with the wieand, it seems to be the better choice, especially since it makes power from idle-6800 rpm and the other dont make power till 1500rpm and i think the highest they went was 6500rpm too.

The main difference between the two is that the Edelbrock one has runners that are above the bottom instead of part of it. The purpose being to try and keep the air/fuel cooler without the heat of splashing oil from below. If the Wieand fits your setup better, go with that.
