Looks awesome. Where did you get those valve covers, they are pretty nice looking thats for sure. What do you know about those spyder intakes, seems pretty hard to get info on them but from what I read you have to turn some serious rpm to get their true potential?

On a NA car you would need a fair bit of RPM or cubic inches to take advantage of what the Spyder can do, on a boosted combo they work very well.

So on my 302 stock block world product senior heads, f cam, edelbrock performer, s trim(should see about 13-14 psi) with supporting mods a spyder intake would be good do swap out the performer for? Iam really only aiming for 450 rwhp or so and Iam pretty sure the performer is going to let it happen but Iam just looking for something "different" under the hood. Thought about a saleen/vortech intake also. Sorry to jack your thread abit just a quick question.

The Performer should get you there but a Spyder based on a Vic Jr would work well for you also. The Saleen/Vortech intake really is not all that the lower needs a ton of work. That is why the Systemax is so nice, they fixed all the short comings of the Saleen/Vortech piece.

The Holley or RPM II works very well on a 302 based set-up with some boost, I use them along with the Vic 5.0 or TFS-R on strokers, along with the spyders. (remember you lose the PCV with the Spyder)

I've got a buddy with a set of Sheetmetals for sale if your interested, Gotera racing made them nice pieces and they fit under most of the EFI intake plus clear rockers. Jeff Johnsons Billet Fab is what I have and sell, expensive but they fit and work great. The new Moroso's look nice as well, you want the billet rails.
