Well the Accufab would have the best quality but would be more expensive than the BBk. I had an Accufab 65mm and it was REALLY nice. It just depends on the amount of money you want to spend. There would be no performance gain between the 2.

I wouldn't say the quality of one is better than the other, just looks wise. The accufab is polished and the bbk/eldebrock is not. Too bad your not looking for 75mm, I could hook you up, lol.

Hands down Accufab. Not saying the BBK/Edelbrock isn't a good peice but I have scene both and the Accufab the nicest aftermarket parts I have witnessed and if you look in the reviews they are rated higher.

No question...accufab. I've never seen/heard of of losing a throttle blade screw. Can't say that about any others.

That is about all they have in common, the quality is night and day. Yes, I have looked at one and held it, it just doesn't compare. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR

ACCUFAB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, your not talking about hundreds of dolars in difference here, about 50-70$ in difference for the best,, as said above, you can get whistles, t/b falling apart!!, sticking wide open!! not shutting all the way!! Problems....... Not worth saving that little bit of money...
