Default Need a good intake manifold

I own a C3 with 1994 LT1 engine swap and I am looking for a good performance intake manifold. All I keep finding are the edelbrock manifolds but reviews are not good. Any suggestion? All I am doing is headers, throttle body, full straight pipe and 100 shot of nitrous and want to add the intake manifold.

Thank you

The stock intake is a performance item, just leave it. If you really want to do something just port it to match the heads.

Eldebrock and TPIS intakes have slightly longer runners. The "Air Gap" does lower air temp slightly. Accel LT1 superram is very rare. You may consider porting stock intake before investing aftermarket intake. GM leaves alot of extra material in ports.

Stock is fine for what you are doing. If you want a little extra flow send it to Lloyd Elliot for porting.
