Andy, I ran the Stage V for several years. It is a good intake, not doubt. But my engine peaks at 5,900 rpm due to the small cam etc. With no other changes, the switch to the Marine dual plane picked up the bottom and midrange noticeably.

Most people want a high RPM 800 HP HEMI, I drive mine a lot, my car is heavy, 4175lb., and a 3.54 gear with a 727 and Gear Vendor. This is the combo that I enjoy driving, sometimes like cruising the cost, for 300 miles in a single week. That is just me.

With a small cam, gear, and heavy car, I enjoy TORQUE!
