Pro Comp intake?

What do you think about a Pro Comp intake for a unmodified 307 with a Holley 4160?

Probably not going to do a whole lot for you on an otherwise stock 307.

Re: Pro Comp intake?

I'm pretty sure the stock GM intakes flow better and fit much, much better. I'd stick with stock until I could afford a real after market intake.

Re: Pro Comp intake?

Tell us more about your engine. I generally recommend an Edelbrock performer for a stock(ish) sbc. It's a great intake for stock to about 300 hp.
