Edelbrock intakes

[attenuated]

I have two edelbrock intake manifolds for a small block. Can anybody tell me the difference(s) between a torker 340 and a tm5 intake? Looking at both in detail they look identical except for the names on them. Thanks in advance for the help.

I don't know what/if they did anything different but the Torker replaced the TM5

Torker has an extra water port in the front and larger plenum volume. I Believe "Torker" was a new line of single plane intakes, small and big block, so they got branded as such even though they were originally a TM5 or Tarantula or whatever. Pretty close though, eh? Like an "action plus" and a "stealth".

the Torker was listed for 2500-6500 rpm range,TM5 aka the Tarantula was 3500-7500 rpm range with higher compression and camming needed.
