Stick with a good intake. That Professional Products piece needs alot of work to be up to par. You would be better off with an Explorer intake than a Typhoon intake.

if it's a 351W you must have a Lightning lower - very nice GT40 style piece. Put the Explorer upper on it and it will feed those heads fine.

Don't get the typhoon. If your looking for an improved intake, maybe TFS-R 351 or just have ^^^ port your current intake.

I agree with the TFS-R recommendation. But, if you're going with a PP typhoon intake, take a look at what anderson ford motorsport has to offer

Its a cheap knock off and performs nothing like the Edelbrock piece.
