There you go. I am running the Holley EFI HP on mine. best upgrade by far IMO. When I stroked mine to a 383 I spent alot of money getting the runners a base ported, bigger injectors, TB, etc. It had a lot of torque but at WOT it just was not there. We put a mini on it and this thing really woke up. BLUF...get a mini or the super and you will be pleased. Also I see by your profile you are inn Hanceville Alabama. Have you talked with Lane Tulver over in Lacy Springs or RCI here in Harvest? both of them are really good guys on the TPI setups.

Just as you're thinking, I'm sure my car would be faster with a MR, or a SR for that matter, but it goes pretty good with a TPI style intake on it.

No doubt your combo is dialed in. What was your DA? I know most of you boys run at sea or a negative DA. My CTS-V ran 11.8 as well but 121 mph!

Elde. no longer makes the high flo tube runners or manifold. However, they have changed over to a mini ram like set up that works out to be about 1/2 the price of the runners set up. I posted more info about this in another posting.

that intake looks like its 9 inches high top to bottom give or take....the big elephant in the room to tackle is.....will it fit under a c4 hood like the TPIS Miniram is designed to do???

Edelbrock is making parts for SBC...SBC mills went into ALOT of different models from 55 on......

if if you have to hack up or modify your hood to install it.....
