whats better, a stock 340 or 340 torker intake?

Go with the stock intake hands down. The Torker isn't all that great..

I also heard a guy at the last Mopar show telling me about the Holley Street Dominator. He said it was a terrible intake. Switching it from a stock 340 intake slowed the car down 3 tenths...but he did praise the "Strip Dominator". Of course, YMMV.

But on the other side of the coin, people slam of Offenhausers pretty bad too..I love those intakes though. My '71 318 pulls like a freight train with the 360* version.
