quality is decent. clearance on the other hand is tight. IF you go that direction, be sure to get the fuel rails or at least the right brackets. they (edelbrocks) breath SLIGHTLY better than the GMPP, but again, clearance...

nice sig and i dont have to worry about fuel rails will be carbed. what i was reading was that the ports dont line up that great and the intake could be shifted around while bolted down

I myself can't say which is 'BETTER' but if you bolt it down properly (10 bolts) it shouldn't shift around. . . have you searched other opinions?
