Depends a lot on the rest of your combo and what you want out of the engine.

I am running a Typhoon which you can find polished on Ebay for around 400.00, its an Edelbrock Performer RPM knock-off and works great on my app.

Give more info on your combo and such.

BBK SSI and Edelbrock are the highest rated, as a matter of fact my buddy upgraded from the Explorer upper and lower to the Eddie and said it was a very big difference.

I have a Victor EFI, lots more power than the old Typhoon. Need a serious set of heads though to realize its potential.

it does all matter on what heads and cam your running, but bang for the buck i would say trick flow, i have a past issue of 5.0 mag they compared all the intakes on the same block with the same heads and cam set up and i remember the trick flow track heat doing around 2nd best behind the elderbrock preformer intake. but for comparing horsepower to cost, trick flow defintely takes it
