Man, just because of the weight and ease of handling on install, etc, I would go anything alum, plus all the other advantages.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

BROOM that turd out and get a Streetmaster or SP2P... NO.NO.never use those intakes ![tsk tsk](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/tsk.gif) on a 440. Build a smaller motor if you want gas mileage ![twocents twocents](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/twocents.gif) The early, pre 1967 BB Mopars with 4 barrel carbs had the small AFB bolt pattern and small air cleaner tops so the later AVS and standard 4150 Holley won't fit on those intakes ![scope scope](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/scope.gif) All the production single 4 barrel intakes for the 413,426W and non HP 440 motors where horrible on air flow and carb size ![down down](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/down.gif)

If you are looking for any kind of performance, using those intakes is like pi$$ing through a straw. MAYBE using the SP yes ... but the Streetmaster no. DEPENDS on your needs and application

sea Bee .... no and YES ... but I planned on running one meself on that 413 motorhomey! ... I did run a Street on it initially because the carb on it was junk. I helped a bud with a 69 Imperial 4 door with SP and s TQ ! ... driving it smoothly netted him almost 21mpg with a 27 or 29 gear ![up up](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/thumbs_up.gif) NOT IN production for a ton of years ? .... true - it was during the gas crunch and that passed. BUT LOTS of good intakes have stopped ... best perfect example - the Helley Street Dom 440 But AGAIN ... why are you a hater ?

If your peeps were looking for HIGH drag strip PERFORMANCE from either of those intakes ... I would agree that those parts are IN FACT a bad choice... especially an SP2P. But those intakes were never designed for that HP application. I called Eddy some years ago about both those intakes. From what I digested from the convo WAS .... SP2P ... better fuel mileage with better low rpm grunt AND be able to EZ usage of a TQ carb. Streetmaster.... a much better mid range intake - THAN A STOCK IRON INTAKE - with an EZ adapt of a TQ carb. In my experience and knowledge of others - EXCEPT from one guy from Bend Oregon- ..... Mission Accomplished ![up up](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/thumbs_up.gif)
