dual plane intake vs. single ?
I have read the ads and manufacturers propaganda but can anyone tell me the real differences betweeen intake manifolds.
I am using in a tow rig for my dragster trailer.

If it's being used in a tow rig, I'd stick dual-plane for the reasons mentioned above. Single planes in a general sense tend to sacrafice a little torque for better breathing and better hp at higher rpm ranges.

The way to Identify and distinguish between the two is?
I assume the lack of a septum dividing the two banks? would make my stock intake a dual plane , and the edelbrock air gap would be considered a single plane?
My stock manifold divides the engine in half, one side going to only four cylinders
???humff??
