90/90 set up is hard to beat, it make good power and produces good results with those afr 205's you have. i have used 78 stuff on a all motor 346, and a s/c 383 and don't have any complaints. either one will make a good difference for you.

The runners are the same between the intakes. Only the mouth of the intake is larger on the 90.

I'd do the 90/90. If your going to spend that much money on a intake and tb you might as well get the biggest.

The porting of the fast is worth it especialy since Tonys porting will pick up good power on the low end. Just pm Tony and he will square you away.

I'm watching that storm on radar. Looks real bad as they are forcasting 4 inches of rain in NY. Supposed to be the worst storm in 14 years for Londg Island. Get your ride up on blocks and hunker down. Where exactly are you? Good luck.

Theres something missing here. You dont pick up 34rwhp from a fast 90 on a 224 cam without heads.

If that's the case, then I should be hoping for 480rwhp this year instead of the 440-450 I'm looking for
