This is an 80's plus intake. MoPar's small block intake is about the best factory intake ever made, period, but it is a factory cast iron (AKA heavy as heck)
It is a very capable intake. You would have no problems making 400+ HP with it.
These are excellent intakes to use. What makes them so good to use?
Cheap! Costing hundreds less than new intakes.
They make power. Edelbrock Performer? LMAO!
They will out last your grand kids, grand kids.
Draw backs?
Heavy heavy heavy, but there are worse things you could do. The weight savings is a minimal issue.
Ugly! The nasty toothless crack hoe looks better after a base ball bat beating after a 10 day crack party binge and sex party with goats.
You'll never hear the end of it. "You should have gotten an aluminum intake."
Doing things on the cheap?
Get it.
Remember F.A.S.T. Guys run really well with these and TQ's to the tune of 11's. But that's a boat load of money and a spot where other intakes make a lot more power. But then again, that old ugly *** iron can and does run 11's.
I have used them in "Stealth" builds. Dead reliable, surprises a lot of people, works great with the TQ carb. A very good carb for a OE unit itself. Spend less up top and then spend on ported heads/exhaust and a nice cam. You'll run very well.
