And from all the dyno tests i have seen its not any better then a Edelbrock Performer Intake , maybe a couple horsepower at best - So why would anyone spend the time and money on a used DP/CH Intake and not knowing what your getting as far as its been milled or heli-coils etc. when you can get the Performer or Performer RPM brand new ???




Because: an intake manifold is basically a non-wear item; a used DP/CH is maybe a third the price of a new intake; it is a pretty darn good intake in its own right - better than the Performer, with more hood clearance than an RPM; it's half the weight of the factory iron intake; and there is nothing wrong with heli-coils for something as lightly loaded as carb/coil mounting studs/bolts???
