Would you all say going with a Performer RPM Would be a good choice? I can also go with the Air Gap one Instead?

Air gap I think is the best all around for a street car I have seen them on 302's and 351's seem to be the choice from what I have heard and felt.

everyone has left out the torquer II, it the one between the vic jr and rpm, cant say i have any experience with them, but thats the one thats the middle.........

i would say look up the specs on the track heat intake, since it is made for those heads, and try to match a carb intake from it, how much cfm and how long the runnerrs are. i know they are quite a bit different, but it has to be somewhat of a starting point.

Great info, I called trickflow They highly recommended the Edelbrock performer RPM Air Gap. They took down all factors into consideration the heads,tranny,gear, and carb they said for my application they think the air gap will do me good. Thank you all for the input. I will throw some pics up here in near future.

RPM Air Gap! I think a dual plane is the way to go for a truck especially if you are still gonna use it as a truck..

I mentioned this link in a previous post regarding a Ranger V8 conversion since IMHO they would look very cool in a truck application and should do a good job of gettting cold air to the carb. www.ramairbox.com
