I was wondering what would be better to get, edelbrook intake or the cobra one? I plan on getting heads and cam in the future and maybe after that a supercharger.

I liked the Edel enough to buy one

Since you got plans for the blower, I'd go with the Edel as it does flow a bit more air.

well, it all depends on which edelbrock your looking @, if your still fairly stock and you get the big boy edelbrock, it might hurt your low end. So it all depends on which edelbrock your looking to get, and how far down the line your looking to put the other stuff on. I got a cobra manifold for a steal, and i can really feel a difference above 3k rpm.

Between two years well at least for the S/C, and thats if i decide to go ahead and get it. Heads and cam within the year for sure. So which Edelbrook should i be looking at. Rember im gonna install all the bolt ons then the intake.

I like the Cobras...especially polished up with a nicely colored plate. They "can" be ported to accommodate a blower too.

I'm a Cobra fan and prefer that intake for the street\strip, but if I couldn't find a Cobra I'd definitely go Edelbrock.

it is basically the same as the cobra, just looks different. it uses the same lower intake. it flows within a few cfm's of the normal cobra. that is the one i have, also just had it ported by tmoss. and to answer your question, that is fine since it is no "bigger" than the normal cobra.

Id go with the edel performer. Proven power and easier to have it grow with your combo.

the typhoon is a knockoff the edelbrock rpm i think. It's a knock off of one of the edelbrocks. It's a fine intake manifold but if you just throw the typhoon on a stock engine it's gonna be way to big and your gonna lose some down low power. I'd go with the cobra i got mine cheap, $290 shipped, if you hunt around on the corral.net classifieds you can find some great deals, i'd go with the cobra.
