I have never really ran the motor with out the air breather on it but its not obstructing anything.

What is a spread bore manifold so I would have to buy a new intake that kinda sucks I already have a edelbrock. my be I'll just get a edelbrock. cause the holley just doesnt make me crap my pants. it should have alot more in it then it does so I dont know. Ive been kinda disapointed with the car. Im hoping that a new carb will fix the problem.
