Intake Manifold Recommendation

TrailBeast, Thanks for your reply! I have read that the Edelbrock had a problem with the thermostat housing clearing the AC compressor.
But I also have heard that the Professional Products manifold has smaller runners. Course for a stock motor, that may not be a bad thing.
But I really would like to hear from others, especially anyone who has used these intakes.

I am running a 2176 Eddie dual plane, but no AC so no personal experience there.
