What is your 451 stroker combo?

Depends on the application & engine build.
Cam size is a big player as well on how it is backed up with a torque converter if applicable, gear ratio and tire size for the drivetrain. The car itself should be light for a single plane.

Here is my blurry dividing line between single and dual plane intake usage. Camshaft duration @050 @ 250*, car weight, 3K w/driver ready to rock, low 11 second range in the 1/4 mile.

If your cam is at the 250* @050, less than 3200 w/a big block looking to to do better than a low 11, then you’ll probably want the single plane.


If your cam is below the 250* @050, more than 3200 w/a big block NOT looking to to do better than a low 11, then you’ll probably want the dual plane.

Being that you have 3.91 gears and not interested in running the track a lot, a dual plane seems to be more fitting. I would suggest a RPM intake. It will offer better low and mid range torque while retaining a good top end.

The cam duration should fit the driving rpm range in cruise. An example would be something like...
65 @ 3000 rpm’s is the cruise speed and rpm.
Have a cam that operates with a minimum starting point below the cruise.
Check the cam grinders min. rpm range the cam likes to operate in. For a mild Hyd cam, this can be in the 240*@050 range. A more aggressive solid cam can change the duration @050 by 4*’s or more. But it becomes much more of a rough idle rowdy cam.

For the above example, 65@3K, a cam that works in the 2500 - 6K range would be fine. Just as an example.

Would also try to get in as much lift as possible to take advantage of the heads flow capability.
If mostly street, a good dual plane like a Performer RPM is hard to beat. If you want every last top end hp and you have enough cam, single plane (but expect less low-end torque, possibly significantly less).
Of course, if you don't mind carbs sticking through the hood, a tunnel ram does it all!

Dual plane is my thought for the street use purpose. Not to mention I don't plan on running high RPM aka over 6k. The builder prefers me to find an old Torker intake. We are planning on a custom grind cam. I don't have much experience. So all I have ran are hydraulic flat tappets. I am leaning more to a solid cam this time. Also my car is 3400# with me in it. Currently has a tired 440 with stealths and a Mopar dual plane.
