Re: procomp intakes?

I had a polished one in my Pontiac 400. No complaints. I did have to modify my valve covers a bit to fit the runners though.

Re: procomp intakes?

i did not know procomp made intakes. I knew they did ignition nd heads and internals.
I put a set of their H-beams, 210 heads, and a pro products intake.
I got the rods and heads cuz i couldnt pass the price lol. only problem i had was the distrib seal leaking.
I wasnt hitting power till about 2500 but that was just cuz of the build. but I pulled it once up to 7500 and it was still pullin hard but let off cuz it is only a 2 bolt lol
