I would assume this one woudl be a goodoption, except fr the hood clearance thing But a nice profiled cut around the intake for the tank might be cool

Keith Wilson and his lead designer determined that I would be better off with a ported efi converted RPM manifold. What exact manifold (part no?) are they talking about? I thought the Edelbrock Performer RPM was a dual plane intake, and EFI prefers single plane? He is Port EFI and the questioning around EFI and Dual planes is around the Throttle body style injection that injects the fuel above the intake manifold.

It kinda felt like those boys one upped me. They stole your idea and cast it in aluminum!!! The Ba$tard$ But I like that EFI manifold ... I bought the one AndyF had when he was cleaning out his inventory. Not sure what I'll ever use it on but it will be some type of forced induction. I have a nice set of ported Stage VI heads. I was thinking about putting those on a 400 block and screwing the Eddy EFI ProFlow on top. A real Frankenstein Motor.

Yes, Mr Porter, I'll go back to the same dyno for another round and we'll have numbers to compare. We'll, that assumes he'll let me back on his dyno after the previous experience.
As long as it's not 105F outside, we will be good. LOL Joe

I assume the different intake and throttle body will require a different tune?

I'm assuming the tune will be different. We'll have to reset the values for the IAT, IAC, and TPS at a minimum. The software will have to tell us what it wants after that. I kinda surprised Brian at Wilson. He had my intake in his hands when I called. In our discussion he started to touch on fluid dynamics and was caught off guard when I was able to run down that rabbit hole with him.
