Default Need advice on intake setup for 383

Currently have a 383 that has 215cc Trick Flow heads 624/624 232/242 duration with 110 LSA. I currently have s Super Vic intake with low profile elbow not the ultra low. With a 90 mm TB. My question is will i make more power if i was to switch to the FAST 102mm truck race intake with a 102mm TB? I would put a 4150 on my super vic but i dont wanna lose wipers.

You can put the 4150 on and keep your wipers. I have that setup.

You'll lose power if you switch to a FAST. Lose the elbow and pickup a Scorpion 4150 TB.

The Scorpion TB is the thinnest of the 4150 TB's, so I think if you use that one, you'll hav enough room to keep your wipers.

If you search a bit, I think you'll find some others who run this setup and were able to keep their wipers. You'll still have to cut the cowl some to get it to fit, but that's pretty much a given. In my opinion, this intake/TB setup is so much better than a FAST. You'll make more power throughout the RPM band (as long as the cam is designed for this intake/TB setup) and you won't have to pay the crazy prices that they charge for a FAST setup.
