which intake

so i already did a search and didnt find what i wanted to know so ill ask it, which intake should i choose between either the Weiand street warrior or the Edelbrock performer (non rpm). the reason i am asking is i can buy a new Edelbrock performer from my shop teacher for 70ish $ or i can buy a Weiand street warrior for 190 on summit. which would be better for a almost stock 305.

Re: which intake

Performer is good for a stock vehicle; from idle to 5500, which is probably higher than what you'll spin that 305 anyway. I've had good luck with my performer, and it being from someone else saves you a lot of money.

I can't vouch for Weiand, but I doubt you could tell the difference, they seem to be very similar at the least.

If you really want Weiand, it seems Jegs has good prices.

Re: which intake

buy it from your shop teacher with the fact he will help you swap it out.. it's a win win.. and you are not making the 305 into some HP monster.. might as well save some $ and have a nice little project..
