Intake ?

[Deuce4935]

What are the added bonused to running the Edelbrock carb intake instead of the GMPP? I've noticed a few people opting for the Edelbrock over the GMPP and I was able to get a GMPP at a very reasonable price but I have not installed it onto the motor yet.

Its hard to believe that we have no Malibu geniouses on here that are familiar with the ins ands outs to this conversion.

if i remember correctly the edelbrock is a dual plane and the GMPP is a single plane.

Edelbrock has a single plane like the GM perfomance parts, but Edelbrock has a victor jr and a super victor and a RPM.

as far as pros and cons I dont know which one is more suited for your application.
I have noticed that most of the mags. have used the GMPP intake.

i have seen people using both, with no hard evidence that one is better than the other, however with the RPM intake you cant run a holley carb if you wanna put the timing controler on the manifold. When i tried it the booster hit the box, easy fix but still sort of a pain in the butt. Its not really a problem with the single plain intakes though because the box doesn't mount on the intake. The GMPP intake is a tiny bit shorter than the edelbrock victor jr. too.

Is the gm intake set up for the rectangular port heads?
