Edelbrock Air Gap on Magnum 318 Problems

kennygene said

Thanks fellas, it looks like the one item nobody argues is the intake. I was told by a pro the intake plenum was too big for a 318 and I would need at least 380 ci to make it work correctly. Today, I'm gonna order the Holley pump tuning kit and see if I can get it worked out.
This is the kit I'm gonna get...

Is there a vendor on here for Holley parts? Streetside has fast shipping and a great pricing.

I agree with the others, I doubt there is a problem with your intake. The pro you talked to must not have much experience with small block Mopar. If the Air Gap is only good for 380 ci strokers then about half the 340's at the Mopar Nats must be using the wrong intake. They work really well. I am trying to rebuild a 340 now and trying to find a used Eddie Air Gap is thin pickings. People really like them and never take them off their car.
