i need a new intake manifold

[p0prcksandc0ke]

well my cars in the shop and they called me and said there was a problem with the intake manifold they got me a cast iron one for me for free but wut kind should i get?

 

[my70stang]

try summit racing and look at all their options, i like ford performance (i dont think they have a 390 manifold though) or edelbrock performance RPM

 

[p0prcksandc0ke]

[my70stang]

[my70stang]

looks good, all depends on what you want...i heard the victors are good intakes

 

[jb1dsl]

How do you plan on driving the car? The victor is more of a race manifold and the performer rpm is more street friendly.

Edlebrock Air Gap.

Just curious, did they say what was wrong with the old Edelbrock you already have?

 

[rbohm]

for a street engine any of these will work just fine;

Which Intake

Weiand Stealth all the way, unless your going for some super HP Stroker.

my old motor was the 302 but I had a mildly aggressive cam and I went with the performer intake and a 660 double pumper and it went from lame to crazy.

 

[p0prcksandc0ke]

ya ive ran the perfornmer one but its going to be a daily driver so i dont know wut im going to go with

If your broken intake is aluminum, it just needs a welder to fix it. Good choices for a 390 : Edelbrock Performer RPM, Blue Thunder's repop of the factory 428PI/427MR intake. Steer clear of the Offy intakes. The 360* is a piss-poor choice and their old "Port-O-Sonic" is a race only piece like Edelbrocks Victor for the FE. Only other's I'd recommend are used ones: Edelbrock's old F427 or Ford's 428PI/427MR

If you mean distributor then I think these guys are full of it. Correct me if I'm wrong but the distributor hold down clamp bolts into the block not the intake ?

You're wrong here. He's got a 390, not a small block. Dustributor hold down bolt hole is in the intake. Distributor goes thru the intake on the FE's

 

[p0prcksandc0ke]

yyup hes right

 

[Rusty67]

Oops, didn't realize I was in big block country
