I got procomp airgap intake and heads on my 302. Heads were done up from a performance shop, but i gasket matched the intake and Heads Trick flow stage 1 cam, 1.7 roller rockers, T-5, 3.73's in rear of a 2wd short bed ranger. 8 year's and no issues from the heads or intake. And its a blast to drive.

Man, I bought a Cheapo 351w intake for porting practice and holy shit, they run better than a performer rpm air gap after ported. I tried both single and dual plan. They’re fine:

I have an air gap knockoff, the casting is pretty nice, took a few minutes with a cartridge roll to clean up the runners and it's good to go. I can't complain for the price

[chaselesser]

I just ordered 2 different knockoffs, the A-Premium and a cheaper one. To see the difference. I have high hopes for the A-Premium, but/c the other seems to have more reviews that say minor flaws, but seller pictures are hard to go by.

If your prepared to do a little tidy up work your going to save yourself a bunch of cash for pretty much the same result. Other video's have flow bench tested these and with a little porting they flow more than the "off the shelf" genuine product.
In Australia its hard to accept the genuine Edelbrock costing nearly 3 times as much at nearly $1000

Have you got the motor running yet? How did the intake seal up? Any leaks?

[jamesrobinson]

Will the Chinese aluminum corrode easier

[graybeardproductions]

Are edelbrock intakes made in the US anymore? DD SPEED SHOP usese both

[kenprice]

I meant 1/4 mile ET & MPH compare.

Don't feel bad about using a China product even AFR is selling a China intake with their Name scribed onto it!
