340Rick - So u just want to know which is better...the Ritter or the MP Drag Pack?
Because there's no question that NONE of the other carb intakes....(modman, Eddydual quad, XV, MP single plane)..... even come close to the performance of the long runner style intakes.
And some...like the Modman....bring a world of issues with them.......
out of the box the drag pak would be better IF you are wanting to stay with the 4150 flange. Its a much nicer casting to start with.
Muscle Motors/Ritter cast more meat into there manifold so you can convert it to a 4500 flange, and its cheaper and easier to find than a DP manifold.
I am using a box stock DP manifold on my engine with a 4150 throttle body and its making over 750HP that's purty darn good for out of the box 4150 manifold

Seems like every engine builder I have talk to has said to go to the 5.7 block and not the 6.1. So is the 6.1 block just junk is that the problem or just cause they are expensive to find?

I think the 5.7's have beefier cylinder walls and are easier to find
I'm wondering,,,,I will know more later, but it appears a 5.7 I just started doing a freshen-up on has about 4 cracked cylinder walls. I will mag-flux later,,BUT,,,they sure look cracked to me. It has been run @ 7800RPM on the dirt track for 2 seasons = 1100+ 3/8 mile laps. Everything else looks good.
If you like drag racing, support your local track.
