What intake would be the best for this combo? I was thinking of using the GT-40 tubular one, but it might be a bit restrictive. Any suggestions?

AFR165's
Custom Cam
70mm TB
77mm MAF
24# injectors

The GT-40 would be just fine for that set up. Either that or one of the Edelbrock intakes.

gt-40 should be great depending on what you plan to do with the car. if u want, you could get the lower ported and i believe it would flow better than the edelbrock performer (tmoss, correct me if i'm wrong)

it should, a ported croba/GT-40 will flow better then an edelbrock.

i had a gt40 tubular with a ported lower. aside from being the best looking intake i have ever seen, it was plenty to see 295whp n/a. i have since sold the car, but the guy that has it now is making 397whp on the same combo i had and an s-trim making a very conservative amount of boost. my point is, unless yuo are building something ridiculous, the gt40 will be more than adequate.

Actually, for AFR heads, either the GT40 lower or the Performer lower need some porting to flow to the potential of the AFR heads. Both are good intkaes - buy the one you find at the best price/in best condition.

Hard to tell without the specs on the cam really. Can you at least tell us the powerband of the cam?
