which intake?

Well, my intake started leaking about a month or so ago. Not a big leak, it goes away when the engine warms up, but comes back after it cools. Anyway instead of just getting a new gasget I figured I'd get a new intake too. I just don't know which one to get. I was thinking about weiland, or edelbrock, but I have an egr blockoff on mine right now, and was wondering if I should go with the egr or non egr version. My car has around 205,000mi LG4, with a Quadrajet, 5-speed manual. Some minor mods, like Flowmaster muffler, K&N airfilter, accel super coil, DR rods and B hanger. It's really strong, At least I think it is. Any suggestions?

You will neeed the quadrajet bolt pattern so your pretty limited to the edelbrock performer, go with the non-egr edl-2101 $109.95.

Weiand Action + (broader powerband than the Performer); GMPP (comes on the ZZ4, for example - take-offs are available out there).
