They sure do look good. 
I asked Edlebrock the same question,they said to stay with the RPM intake for a mild-hot street motor.------------------

302 or 351W?The 302AG is pretty much just like the RPM, but with an Air Gap. The 351W AG is much taller than the RPM (same height as a Vic jr) and is a little larger inside. The larger and/or wilder the engine, the more it will like the Air-Gap intake. (if it's a 351W) ------------------

Ronnie, I would take a look at the Weiand Stealth intake manifold. I've used it in the past and really really like it. I personally think its much better the performer and air gap. I have a friend running a 1985 Mustang .030 over stock stroke 351w running mid to high 10 with a hydraulic roller cam.
*Edit*
In fact, I'm going to give it a shot on my 14.5:1 351w that currently has a Victor Jr. The guy that has the 85 stang tried the Victor Jr and the car lost .2 in the 1/4.
