Default Which intake manifold?

I have read numerous threads but still up in the air. Has anyone had personal experience with switching? I am either running a hi ram, pro flo, or victor jr with 6061 elbow. What seems to work best? When I sell my ported 92 it will fund the intake and I don't like the ls6 intake, plus I believe there are gains to be had over the ls6 with the above intakes.

Bob at All Pro heads said he would recommend a super vic with a sheetmetal elbow

Kinda hard to suggest an intake with no engine/combo information. Pick the one that best matches your top end, RPM range (cam), and desired power band. I've had no experience with any of those so I won't comment. People with experience could give you a better suggestion with more detailed information.

I'd ask lil'john which would work best with his cam personally.

Agreed. A super vic intake will want a much different cam than a stock intake
