Too much intake? RPM Air Gap on a stocker 360

-
Yeah, the single plane being better for tbi is out of my wheelhouse having never graduated from carburetor school, but if that is true, that's a plus because there are torker II all over town for $50.
 
The two look to have all the same holes. Maybe I am unclear to what a standoff is. #learnin

dis two mon. AC goes der.

and the one in the upper part next to the carb mount and ahead of the choke.

HMMMMMMM...... Im not tryin to argue here but the 5076 has both of those hoes.....

I believe .......but I don't see...

well, that's a new one to me. i don't ply my trade in torker land, and the only experience i have with them are the early ones.

at any rate, that certainly *looks* like stand offs for AC

i don't know if i'd use a single plane on a motor for a truck in this particular application, but with the EFI it might be a little more civilized. it's really down to what the set up is and how it's driven.
 
The sniper has internal injectors so it’s going to behave a lot like a carburetor. Single planes are best with a grunt torque application like a truck if they have the injectors right at the port window spraying towards the back of the intake valve. The fuel and air column in a single plane behaves very differently than just air that gets fuel mixed in it at the port window. I’d definitely stay with the basic performer if running a sniper setup.
 
Honestly, I'd just put the factory cast 4bbl on there. All the torque, performance, and hook-ups you'd ever need
This application has a factory TBI situation mounted up there. Which intake are you meaning?

Sorry, Im a little lost in all this.....tryin to keep up now.
 
A factory 340 or 360 four barrel cast iron manifold. Those are spread bore, so probably would have to fabricate an adapter for it. If you could find a suitable adapter for the 360 TBI intake, it would work well. One last question. Automatic or manual truck, cruise control equipped? If it’s equipped with an automatic, it’s definitely easier to swap a factory four barrel intake to than to modify the transmission throttle pressure linkage to fit with a spacer. You’ll also need the Holley Chrysler throttle lever adapter Either way to correct the throttle lever ratio.
 

Thank you for mentioning that, too. Yes, I had forgotten about the later oversized plug arrangement on the back of the alternator. Very much will need that valve cover from the original engine if using the existing alternator.
