With a boring old 302 with mods listed and a Vortech blower, what would be a better choice? The Performer or Performer RPM? What would make the best power?
Until you figure out the h/c combo you may want to wait. If not a cobra or eddy will work fine for now. You could find used cobra intakes on corral/ebay pretty cheap.
If I were in your shoes, and had to choose between the Performer and RPM, I'd go with the regular Performer. The centrifugal blower won't help you on the bottom end, if anything it'll hurt, so you want as much torque as possible. The RPM is meant to rev -- and by the time you get up where it will benefit you, you're forcing the air anyway.
