what intake you guys running on your 360's????....i have a BRAND NEW edelbrock torker(i think) that was mounted on my motor but NEVER ran that ill be selling because i dont care for it.
 
I've run the TorkerII360, RPM air gap, LD340 and factory iron T-Q intake. The TorkerII360 is for the track more than the street. Best used with a hi stall converter. It doesn't make that much torque down low and is best to skip that rpm band below 4,000 and launch it hard with that intake.

well,i have a 8" 4200 converter and 4:56's and i race ALOT on the street!! :headbang:
 
i have a torker2 340 on my 360 dont know how i feel about bc i have yet to go down the road in it yet........what back space are your pro stars
 
I give a vote for the M1 single plane or Victor 340. If you want a dual plane the RPM air-gap hands down. I didn't lose any low-end when I went from the RPM to the M1 but I picked up huge on the high-end. I spin my 318 up to 6200.
 
have a holley strip dominator on my 340 and it makes some serious power at high rpm and fits with a 5" airfilter under a sixpack scoop, but its alot less powerfull at low rpm than eddys rpm manifold, just seat of the pants tested unfortionaly

starts pulling a good 1000rpm earlier than the strip dominator and should be equal at the top end, think my holley strip dominator wil be changed know! thanks for the info! :headbang:

Not trying to be too critical here - but if I understand from previous posts, you are building a mild perormance 360, why would you not go with the Performer RPM or Airgap with a range of 1500-6500rpm. Me thinks it would give you way better performance in the rpm range your engine will be operating most of the time.
 
I never go past 6200 RPM on my 318 and the M1 far out peforms the RPM intake I had on the car. I'm not saying the RPM is a bad intake...far from it but it is a street intake not street/strip. And if I know Mike this car will see the track. That is why I feel the M1 is ore suited to his needs.....this is just my opinion though. In all reality I think the RPM Air-Gap or M1 would be the best choice and I throw my vote to the M1.
 
I may be blind, but I noticed no one mentioned a Holley Street Dominator. I am building a 360 and I am slapping the Street Dominator that I previously had on my 318, no question. The intake is great on the street from 2000-5000 rpm's.
 
WOW! You dug up this ol'thread?!?! He he he.

That intake is best in a mesuem or used for a boat anchor. But, if you like it, you like it. It's just that theres much better out there nowerdays.
