I'm putting a 331 stroker in my 89GT. I'm wondering what would be the best intake to put on it. It has a 70mm mass air, 70mm throttle body, airflow research heads, 30# injectors, bbk shorty headers, bbk offroad h-pipe, underdrive pulleys, cold air induction, msd ignition, and 373 gears. Any help is greatly appreciated.

With the 185's and XE 282 you're gonna want an Edelbrock RPM 2 or Holley Systemax.

For a nice basic build:

- AFR 185
- Holley Systemax or RPM II
- custom camshaft

I have had great success from Ed at www.flowtechinduction.com.

He sells AFR heads as well.

Another vote for Ed. He would be a nice source to contact for intake advice as well.

Systemax and RPM 2 get my vote as well. Best part is they are both great looking as well.

I never knew there were so many Ed View attachment 328956 on Stangnet...


RELAX guys... it was just a joke!!!!!

I have personality issues with Ed, that's no secret...
But I must acknowledge that he knows how to get results...

Personally, I went with Jay (Camshaft Innovations).
I have a link in my sig, if anyone wants to look into what he does...
