I say go for it, I've got some intakes almost ready to go.

I might be a little partial though.

with your setup, i think you would see a lot of gain. I'm partial too though now that i own two of these intakes.

I was going to do it on my 305 but I've had a rod start knocking and a 383 is going to replace it. The 383 will have the LT1 intake though.
