Default Intake Manifold

I need some help on choosing a manifold.
Should I go with the Edelbrook 2101 or use the Crosswinds Cyclone 52000

In satin finsih they are priced about the same. But in polished finish the Cyclone is about $90.00 cheaper.

Which make is the better choice.
I just want to dress up under the hood and keep my Quadarjet carb.

I am going to put on LT1 aluminum valve covers so should I go with polish or satin finish?
:confused: :confused: :chevy :seeya

Not sure about the others.....but a Weiand "Action Plus" dual plane will accept either a spread bore or square bore carb, and probably still be cheaper than those other 2. Would come in handy if ya ever wanted to swithc to a Holley.......My $.02
