I would avoid the Torker II for a street engine with a relativly stock design. The Torker II is a single plane design with a not-so-recent intake runner design. I would look more to the dual plane intakes. Im not sure it the RPM has the EGR or not.

I know the ZZ series intake does (p/n 10185063). I have one of those on my floor and they look pretty decent.

whats a good range for the rpm, my car has headers, 350 cam and not much else as far as engine mods? The Edelbrock Performer RPS and Performer plus is dual plane, dont know if it would work though.

What do you mean by "350 cam?" A cam out of a 350? If so, a ZZ series like the one i posted would be good. Factory cams are like an idle-4000 or so RPM, maybe 4500. They aren't all that big. Definitly not something that screams single plane.

Ok, not a bad price, any cheaper ones that will work just as well. I could afford it, just wondering what else is available. Thanks for the link.

I live in Canada, i dont know if they ship here?

Or, watch for one of these on ebay, or the classifieds on this site.
