That’s the whole thing right there. There is no chase for an ET slip or maximum power output that can justify spending the money on a RPM AG over what he already has.
A member here (if not a few members) a while back called up Edelbrock and asked the important question straight out which was is it worth dumping your older LD-340 for the then New (ish) RPM AG in which the reply was No. Right out of the companies mouth. While the tech’s did note it would be a better intake than the older LD-340, the cost wasn’t worth the swap.
I myself hoping the pendulum was going to swing a bit more in my favor for testing such a thing. I have wanted to dyno test a few engines I have for the fun of it with a focus on intake manifolds. I have two engines about ready to be hooked up to the lie detector test with a few intakes to run for fun. But this is expensive to do and I’m not going to get all the testing done overnight!
What dual plane intakes do I have?
Weiand’s Action Plus & Stealth, RPM AG, Chink knock off of the AG and a D-64 dual quad. Also a 6-pack.
Why? Why the heck not?! I’m entertaining myself with this idea just for curiosity sake.
