I personally like the Carb. style intakes for boost. It evenly feeds each cylinder. (or better than the factory styles one do) I know this has been debated to death, but this is my opinion.

I have switched from a LS2 to a Vic Jr. Doing this has drastically helped out the idle characteristics. It also resulted in about 30 rwtq loss to about 4500 RPMs, but it has also picked up 25ish rwhp in the upper RPM range. The 5700 to 6800 RPM range should be finished today or tomorrow Well worth the switch IMO.

347 was my second option.. lol.. that i know of there is the vic jr. and the super victor... what do ya'll think of the new pro-flo xt?.. we've installed a couple of them but on nitrous fed motors.. lost a couple of ponies N/A (18hp at most) but gained that and alot more on spray. (this was on trucks though..truck scene is huge here in south texas)

any thoughts on the futral fm9 cam?..

Interesting? I would have thought a loss in the torque department down low but not in horsepower.

LS2/402, off the shelf AFR 225 heads, LS2 intake, EPP cam, ProCharger F-1A.

We have had great success with the above camshaft in a lot of different vehicles. Bob
