Seems to me the trick flow 240 would be a better fit for a 426 ci. Street/strip engine. And best bang for the buck. I'm yet to hear from anyone using the 270 except for Andy Finkenbeiner doing some dyno stuff. The trick flow stuff from what I have read is ready to go out of the box. Indy stuff is definitely not.

using original max wedge intake I would use the EZ-1's to get the MW port. We have them right now on a 512 using the oe crossram. Works great!

Are the TF 270's worth $300 more than EZ-1's in ootb form? Yes.
It remains to be seen whether or not the TF's would have more potential than the EZ's, but OOTB, the TF's are currently the top dog IMO.

Buy your Indy EZ's from someone like Porter. This, plus I run the EZ-1s with a cross ram. No valley plate needed. Just some spacers for the end rails.

can't you just bolt on the max wedge port intake to a standard head and it work? would it not be the same as when someone uses a 340 intake on a 318 ? not a perfect match, but people do it & it seems to be O.K. well can a source stealth head be opened up to work with a max intake ?

I have seen so many people buy a old OEM Max Wedge intake manifold and bolt it onto a set of stock port size 440 heads and wonder why their car didn't run any better with two carbs. It is called "reversion" which a real power killer Same thing on buying the reproduction 440 cross ram intake on stock type 440 heads, not good results either BTW, putting a 340 intake manifold on a set of 318 heads will not work well either
