You have'nt stated track size, but no cast iron intake will flow high numbers, best bet is to gear the car with same MEP camshaft to run with that cast iron intake. Most cam makers have a good flow numbers and cam grind to meet your needs. Maybe try a cast iron intake from camaro early quad carb. Also will your rules allow carb. spacer??? 1' + ?? You could try Berzenskis in Milwaukee, Wi. they do under cover work, and have higher flow numbers that would more suit you.

Also try and stick with the same flange as your carb. (ie.. square-bore to square-bore,ect). Running an adapter only works good for Johny Cash. Try also to find one without an EGR valve, your not racing the smog police!

My son runs in a like class. We use an intake from a 73 Impala with a cast number 346260. You can look that up on internet. Google chevy intake cast numbers. But that intake is higher than most, and flow results are quit good at around 6000 rpm. Of course you can always do a little hidden work to it as well. Hint Hint and is hard to find.

You leave out the most important piece of info. What if any are the rules regarding carbs?? Worrying about intake flow is pointless if you are restricted by the carb,if you can't use at least 500cfm no reason to look for large intakes,in fact too large may be a problem. Another big issue is cubic inches?? If at least 350 CI and 500 cfm carb I'd be looking for the early 70's z/28 manifolds also found in some SS model of other nameplates just my 2 cents
Actually I watched it more than once,back when it was worth watching!!!

Ezrider714....very true on a lot of accounts. As I stated matching will do more good than searching for the straight largest.
