Well if you have your intake ported it will let more air in and will allow you heads to not be as restricted. You might wanna get a bigger Throttle body as well to help the air flow. The engine will breath better all together.

What are the flow numbers on the heads vs those of your stock intake??

FYI, stock TPI runners 1.470" dia flow 200cfm.

Probably would not make a difference unless you go 383 or bigger.
