Because you have to take out the wipers and cut the lower window cowl wide open.

I agree but if you running a stalled auto the Vic junior might give better ET's.

I'm running the Victor because the low end loss doesn't matter since the engine will be singing 5800-7000rpm at the track.

So basically it all depends on the application of the engine to denote what intake to use. and would you recomend it for a 346 street/strip would be the next question? im asking because i also want to use one on my motor. BUT you dont have the experience with the LT's so i ask about the LS instead haha

it would depend on how radical the h/c is Mike avg h/c a fast is plenty but for a more wild set up the carb is better. carb setup is made for a higher rpm powerband and less down low. However I really don't think the stock lt1 intake is that bad atleast until the 550+ range.
