The T-II with a well made spacer/850DP/HP950 on it will rival the Victor/Dominator out past 650hp, back to backed them on many occasions.

It still doesn't really start to shine over any dual plane intake till past 4400rpms or so, and will give up some "grunt" down low, etc. If you want bragging rights on a dyno run, by all means get the T-II intake, put at least a 1" spacer on it, or an adapter if you are using a spread bore carburetor and good to go.

For most of these engines the RPM will be fine, if you have the clearance for it, and don't mind some "cobbling" on occasion to install one.

If you are into "stock appearing", or just like to use as many stock parts as possible, for most set-ups we see talked about in the street section, it's difficult to outrun the stock parts anyplace, especially if they have been "massaged" a bit by someone who knows their way around these things.....Cliff

Yeah I have a T2 with one inch spacer, 850 DP. Seems like it really boogies between 4000-6400 or so, a little soft below that. With the four speed and closer gear spacing I think it is a pretty decent setup. Honestly I came from a 325 hp 350 Chevy that was in the car when I got it, the comparison to a 505 CID Pontiac is just mind-blowing.
