Now that my exhaust is done, I want to do the intake. Its a 8.5 to 1 350 with bone stock 487 heads ie pressed in studs and stock valves and springs. What do you guys recommend. I want to stay low budget and not have to pull the heads.

My thoughts were a 600 Holley DP or 750 vac sec on a performer. No clues about the cam due to the limits of the heads. It is a weekend driver and I would not mind experimenting with a solid.

I have done a search, but want to be specific to my heads. Thanks in advance.

Sleeper: I'd recommend a vacuum secondary carb,and the Edelbrock #1405,600 cfm. would be perfect for you.A 750 is serious overkill.As for a cam,with that compression and those heads,I'd go with Crane's Powermax grind,Summit part number:CRN-113932. Steve
