Don't remember the name, but put one I ported on a 5L Mustang and it worked really well and was 1/2 the price of the edelbrock.

Did it ever warp? Are there chevy scb manifolds any good?

Has anybody else used their products?

Thanks

I bought a pair of Edelbrock "finned" valve covers (Elite Series) got them home, flipped one upsidedown and it says "Made In Tiawan" right in the casting. I was NOT impressed... I'm not sure how much of there stuff is made "Over There" now? Maybe there still making their intakes, heads, ect. in the USA.

My brother bought the nock-off too for a fo$d though and he had to file and work the sides of the intake to get to fit. Minor thing though, but he's been happy with it so far. Randy
