The one he recommended to us was the one made by Wilson Manifolds. It was a four hole funnel port design I believe. Steve.

Mostly the plemum intake configuration. Many try to copycat the Wilson design and fail miserably. Pro Form is the WORST! Carb stud holes aren't even close. Everything they market is JUNK! ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,&'03 First SS/MA in the TENS!
