Edelbrock Intakes Questions

Hey, I have an LT1 cam on the way, and am hoping to get Vortec heads a little later on. I would like to get a performer rpm intake, and the one I see most on Ebay is #7101. Can this be made to work w/ the vortec heads? I know it will work w/ the Tbi w/ an adapter plate. If it does not work, is the performer TBI all that bad compared? or would Performer Vortec work better?

Thanks,
Clint

If you plan on keeping the Lt1 cam then I would go with the edelbrock performer (2116) for vortec and a holley adaptor plate.
If you had a major cam then I'd probably go with a single plane (most power). If you go with the RPM and adaptor plate, excpet to either do what I did or go with a new hood for more clearance.

Thanks for the response. I want to keep it from being a wild cam setup, as Turbochargers are in it's future, I just want to have a better powerband before I go through all that trouble.
