Smallblock intake manifold shootout.

Well said stroked 340. Another point I would like to , point out is that the intake shoot outs were on a specific engine combo and all the intakes were tried out on it. This is a problem. The lower performing intakes, like Edelbrocks Performer should not have been on top of he engine. While it didn't perform to badly, it was giving up alot of power. The test showed this and , well, I guess it was good they showed it so you yourself do not leave power on the table.

I have the article saved on paper. I just do not remember ANY Weiands used in the shootout test. I'll double check in a few. But I would make a comaro of it to the Torker II they used.

A single plane in the street needs alot of stall converter and gear to be able to compete with a well done dual plane intake set up. If you can't get a set up where the stall converter and gear come into play at approx. around 3500 - 4000 rpm, a dual plane is a better bet.
