LT4 intake debate has been going on forever. The LT4 intake simply has more "meat" for you to port with than the LT1 does. Outside of that there aren't any big differences.
Give us a call at the shop, and we can give you a few options to choose from. We have the best shortblock pricing out there.

Exactly as stated above. For instance a car that makes 400rwhp on our Mustang Dyno, makes almost 440rwhp on a Dynojet just two miles away.
The two read differently is all. So 400rwhp N/A on a Mustang dyno is no slouch. Hell the car runs mid 11's on motor.
