Which intake

Which intake - 08/11/14 03:13 PM

I currently have a mild 440 with 10:1 compression, 440 source heads, mopar 590 cam a weiand intake (not sure of the model, its old and has wieand stamped but I can't located a P/N) and holley 750 double pumper. I'm thinking about changing the intake and than possibly the carb. I footbrake and leave 2700-3000 and shift at 6300. Would the mopar M1 or edelbrock victor be a better intake or is there another intake out there better suited for my combo?

Look at the Mopar 337 intake. It comes cast with a port in between stock and MW and works pretty good. It also has the built in valley pan so no more messing with the intake pan gasket! I'm using one now and I really like it.

Is the car a street/strip car or just a strip car only ? Any idea what it weighs ? Ron

Strip only. Weighs 3030 w/out driver.

Is it a single plane or dual plane intake version? Also how much bigger carb. are you planning on, will it be a 4150 or a Dominator carb. ?

It is a single plane intake and I will probably stay with the 4150 style carb.

Strip only for a fairly light car would be a Victor 440. A slightly better choice is you have the room would be a Mopar M1 4500 intake with a Wilson 4150 to 4500 adapter. The Mopar 4500 intake has a better plenum but on your engine there might not be much difference in terms of power.
