RE: Best intake & carb for low RPM 390 truck motor

Well you could go to an Edelbrock Performer (not the RPM) if you're only interested in low-rpm grunt but it's not going to be a remarkable improvement over the iron 2bbl in the rpm range you're interested in. About all you're going to accomplish is saving some weight. I think the Edelbrock Performer series of intakes has become the consumer standard as far as delivering promised performance in their design range. I would avoid that Weiand single plane at all costs.

If you did go to a replacement intake, go with the Holley 1850-series 600 cfm vacuum secondary or the comparable Edelbrock 600 CFM. You could also use the Autolite 4bbl, but it's so much easier going with something new that doesn't need a rebuild.
This thread, so far...
