Wow, it's funny how rude people can be behind a computer. I thought I was very clear on what I was asking. Intake for intake which is the better choice with "MY" build. The "intended purpose" is irrelevant. This is my car. My daughter will get drive it with me. But that doesn't mean it doesn't have very good parts inside ie. H-beam rods, SRP pistons ect. ect. Did I want a 8k motor to make 500 hp? No... this isn't my first rodeo.
All I was looking for was some real world experience/opinions.
I came to this board to be able to talk to fellow A-body lovers and to get my fix of car talk. This is my high school car. I found it 21 years after I sold it. (I had to sell it when I went I into the service.) Why would a guy need to defend himself from the likes of you? Please in the future ignore any of my questions. I surely don't need to hear what you have to say.
