New intake manifold(Weiand)

Hi guys,I am going to be switching from the aluminum GM intake i run now (305 H.O. one), to a Weiand action-plus(#8004).Will i notice any changes without the EGR,and am i going to have issues with the tv and throttle brackets?I expect to do a certain amount of frigging with an aftermarket piece,but hopefully it won't be too much hassle.I run a spreadbore Holley 4175 and non-comp.HEI so theres' no computer issues.I'm hoping, with my cam and headers,to see a noticeable power increase.I've tried to keep my combination as matched as possible and i think this manifold is going to fit in pretty good.Thanks.

The manifold works great. In fact its the only inexpensive manifold I would reccomend. Everything is close enough they consider it a factory replacement. I gained 800rpm per gear with it compared to an edelbrock de-performer.
