If I remember correctly, almost all aftermarket TPI intake parts are interchangable with eachother.

I think there is a difference in the Accel base compared to the Edelbrock base. Other than the fact that the Edelbrock is cheaper.

From talking with a few people on the net I think the intake opening at the head is larger on the Accel base. I dont have any first hand proof of this though. I beleive the Accel intake port openings are similar to a proted TPIS base. Which is a ported Edelbrock base anyway.
