Summit is the way to go. If there is a problem with the part there is no question on returns for exchange or credit, and quick.
Shipping, here is an example. I ordered parts Sunday online, got an email confirmation in 20 minutes, got and email confirmation of shippment on Monday AM and the box arrived Wednesday AM.

As far the correct manifold - there are so many variables in the choice, post what your engine combo is, carb etc and you will be flooded with info from the members. Or read the archived posts on intakes and your questions should be answered.

I like Summit. Good customer service and they ship fast. I bet if you ask them they might match/beat the JEGS price.

I've got the EGR #3701 on my 1980. It's the correct part #.

I use both, but usually Summit cause they shee extremely fast to my house. My only nit pick with them is that they package stuff with the styrafoam (sp?) ***** :mad What a freaking mess it can make, especially when they over pack it with them. :lol:

Sorry guys for not getting back to ya... 2 days, and 2 pages... wow

I am thinking Summit, because i have ordered with them before, nice turn around etc... but watching my pennies, more mods the more i save :jester

Yes 75's came with cowl induction, I'm thinking about a Road demon carb for the car, because the qjet is a pain to rejet. I'm thinking about rasing the compression to 9 or 9.5:1. Plausible to have emmissions legal headers, a new cam for sure, thinking a 268h or xe256 (oh boy, the one thats one step below the 268... brain "dead" :crazy: )

A high flow cat. and monza mufflers. Thinking about a new gear, the stock one is kinda... well slow off the line. Plausible to have an overdrive trans in the mix also.

Thats about it, shooting for 350 horse, 350 lbs of torque... enough to go drag racing, and get out of its own way... 160 is a little whimpy
