deciding on a intake for a sbm weiand stealth or air gap
No coil mount provision on the stealth/action plus/ld4b.
Yes sir-ee.
They wanted it gone. The intake is a bad place for electrical mounting.
This works great for the coil, on the staggered bracket, on an A body, with stock wires-
There is a step on the firewall, right by the wiring branch that works great, sits up, next to the distributor with enough room to reach the hold down bracket bolt. I also got the wiring harness off of the valve covers and up on to some home brew brackets that share spark plug wire separators.
And my engine will be seeing more street than strip and I live in Michigan so temps very here from hot to cold so I will be driving my car from spring to fall.
Go with the Weiand. Even in the summer, you won't see temps high enough on a regular, to need an air gap, unless you've got unwrapped headers and a low CFM rated fan, pulling air through the radiator, like a flex fan, slipping clutch fan or electric fan without a complete shroud.
