Re: Need Some Advice Please Help !

Summit sells a line of house-brand intake manifolds that are re-badged Weiand intakes with a few bucks knocked off the price.

Your Edelbrock 1405/1406/1407 will bolt onto practically ANY aftermarket intake manifold. Technically, it's a "squarebore" carb, like most Holleys, but it has enough "width" to the baseplate it will cover the carb flange on a "spreadbore carb" intake manifold with absolutely no problem (no vacuum leaks, everything works exactly like it should).

Personally, I prefer "spreadbore" intake manifolds. You can put a QJet on them, or an Edelbrock, or even a Holley squarebore carb (with a $6 adapter plate, also available from Summit). Gives you more options in the future.
