Kitz - you must have had a unique experience. According to Edelbrock, "These single-plane, low-rise intakes work well for high-rpm, high-performance street applications. Ideal for applications where hood clearance is limited, they produce gains in top-end horsepower with adequate throttle response. Not intended for mileage or emissions applications, they are only for high-performance vehicles."

They are not intended for low RPM (under 2500) applications..

Depends on the total package too.....if you have a 4,000 pound car with a powerglide and 2.73 rear gears ,it not going to work too well.

If you have a lighter car a 4 speed manual and 4.11 rear gears it will work alot better.

I also depends on how you intend to build the engine...

For a stock rebuild its not the best choice.....

Will the manifold work ....sure ,but you may have some tune issues to sort out ,plus it may make it more finicky to drive.

I would suggest as others have a more modern dual plane intake would give you less trouble and make it less tune sensitive.

Tell us more about what you plan to put the engine in and how you plan to use it and these great people here will have some good advice for you that will fit what you are trying to accomplish.
