intake head combo?


I just bought some edelbrock rpm heads and I want to get the tf track heat intake but will it work great with those heads or should I keep it all edelbrock?

IMO go with an edelbrock intake since they are designed to work together

The TFS intake will work fine with a different brand of heads. The parts you put on an engine don't care what other brand of parts they are being attached to.

If you're still concerned about your various bolt ons' feelings, you can port match just to make it easier on them.

No, the parts don't care what they are bolted on to, but I could understand why there would be some difference when you put an Edelbrock on TFS heads. An intake is designed to flow a certain amount of air at a certain speed and the heads may be designed with that in mind, but it's not going to be a disaster to use parts from different manufacturers. If you already have some parts, it sure as hell isn't worth repurchasing the same component just to have matching names.
