Very true, should have prefaced it with "A street car", vic JR would be good in a big cam high stall race application where low end isn't a necessity

Someday I'll take the time and actually test back - back a FAST against a Carb intake while the car sit's on the dyno.Would like to see what it does on a 346ci.

I've seen it with the GMPP intake and FAST 90 once, the GMPP intake made about 15 more up top with an 850, but the FAST had a better curve and Average power, not sure how they would have been against each other at the track. I am also willing to bet the FAST is alot more efficient in a street or street/strip application, But I do love the feeling of big secondaries opening up on a 4 BBl

But if you use a 90 degree elbow that works as a runner which can promote midrange power.

The Pro Flow looks good but from what I've told it's not very great on the power department.

probably due to the runners being so long the thing chokes on the top end sort of like the TPI cars. i wonder if some one chopped an inch or two out of the runners weld it back up and port match the runners back together if it would work. I would think it should pull a bit better sort of like a sheet metal intake with smaller ports.
