The duration is
Advertised @.050
IN EX IN EX
300 308 255 262
Yeah, I could have went bigger for the heads, but this is a street motor and I take the car to the strip once a year. The intake had to be a low profile for the hood clearance. With the short performer intake, I only have 2.5 inches between the top of the carb and the bottom of the hood. I did have the Performer RPM, but I couldn't go with it because of the same hood clearance problem. The power range is supposed to be from around 3-6500 RPMS.
