Stop in for a cup of coffee

Soo.. i'm curious bout something... all i ever see are edelbrock intakes, even in the way back times i rarely saw weiand but when i do see them, ones like this look tall as hell, was there something wrong with weiand that let EB just run them over?

Good intakes. As good or bettter than the Edelbrocks. Probably bettter quality overall.
