I've been told that the Weiand has larger intake runners than the Edelbrock rpm...so I went with the Weiand.

Thanks,what times do you run with it?
I currently run 12.70's in the quarter with the RPM but my 60 ft. times suck,looking for more bottom end.

[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img]it is my understnading that the stealth works from off idle to 7500 rpm. the performer rpm airgap works from 1500-6500 rpm. if you want more low end try the stealth.

A guy that worked at a speed shop for a while told me the stealth was by far the best way to go as far as SB fords go. Not very scientific but what the hell, one more opinion cant hurt.

I picked the Stealth for the stronger top end. We've batted this discussion around once or twice. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

I have ordered the stealth,it should be in by weeks end,I will give you all comparative runs with 60 ft times and 1/4 times,one vs the other on my 302,I am going to set the stealth up just like the rpm is and compare,more to follow and thanks for the input.
