deciding on a intake for a sbm weiand stealth or air gap

Agreed.

If this is a street car that has no heating or cooling issues, you've only got two questions to ask yourself, with a corresponding answer;

- Will this engine be used in 40°F or lower weather or do you have exhaust manifolds? - If so, use the Weiand.
- Will this engine be used in 90°F or higher weather or do you have headers? - If so, use the Edelbrock.
