Edelbrock or Holley ??



Looking at new intakes....
Trying to figure what would be better for my application.
I have a cobra upper and lower now.
It is my daily driver.

I've heard many people recommend edelbrock's , and say its one of the better intakes out there. I haven't heard much about the holleys, from what i've seen people have mixed feelings about the holley systemax. I also have the cobra upper and lower, and these intakes will flow better than it, but I don't think it's a big difference

Keep the cobra of you still have stock heads. The heads are your choke point. If you want bang for your buck, get a set of decent aluminum heads instead.
