what would be the best intake manifold choice for a sbc with a d1sc pro charger . ?

Any single plane will work fine.

well i have the weiand . we already know that manifold is out . a friend just gave me an early edelbrock tm 1 the early torkmaster series it is an open plen from 2500-6500 but something keeps telling me i should spring for a victor jr or a super vic and have it blended and matched to my heads. any intake i9 use will get the blending and port matching . what ya think frank ? go with the early torker or spring for the victor. ??


how was that vacation . hope you guys had fun and got to relax.

My preference would be for a smaller single plane... a Vic. Jr. works great but the TM1 should work well too.

I have also used an RPM Air-Gap dual plane with my old blowthrough setup; off-boost manners especially at low RPM were a little better than a Vic. Jr. and mixture distribution at WOT was still pretty good with the dual plane but not as good as with the Victor Jr.

A super vic is WAY too big for a SBC that sees any street duty. I daily drove my car with a Super Vic for a while and it sucked. No mixture velocity and no power down low, and from putting around town it had poor mixture distribution and needed way hotter plugs in the 4 corners. It will work fine under boost but off-boost it's just too much intake and performance and driveability will really suffer.

I am with 353, a Victor Jr is perfect in most cases.
