Which Intake Would Benefit Me The Most?

Should I go with the Edelbrock Performer or the Weiand Stealth intake?
I have a bone stock LG-4, but i plan on adding:

Hooker Comp. Headers(Jet hot coated) 1 5/8 into 3 in. collectors
3 inch in/out Catco high flow cat
3 in. Flowmaster American Thunder cat-back
CompCam 264H hydrallic roller cam
K&N air cleaner(whether its just a replacement for the OEM or a open element one, dont know yet)

I am looking at different intakes too. The Edelbrock Performer and Weiand Stealth are what im looking at now. Which intake should I go with?

I had always heard 305s like the performer better. It will also keep hood clearance a non issue.

If you have hood clearance, the weiand 8004 out performs the edelbrock performer 2101 these are both lower than the stealth and the performer rpm.
