Edelbrock performer
1984 GT aluminum 4-barrel intake

I was told that the GT intake produces more low-end torque and will get better gas mileage.

The motor getting one of the two intakes is stock and will probably never see any RPMs above 4500

For what it's worth I installed a Performer RPM intake in place of my stock 1985 GT intake and went from a best 1/4 mile mph of 95.89 to 98.51. That's about a 20 flywheel hp gain. I also didn't notice much, if any, loss in low end power/torque. And that's with the intake that makes power from 1500-6500 rpm....the intake you're thinking of is idle-5500 rpm.

May not be what you are wanting to hear, but I like the Weiand stealth much better than the two listed.
