This is a timely discussion. My engine is out for a refresh right now. Currently running an 850 dp on a Northwind manifold but have always liked the idea of dual quad setup. Engine is a 461 with 10.8cr. KRE D-port heads that were just ported to 325cfm. Cam is 242/248 @ .050 with .585" lift. Car is used for street/strip running a 12 bolt with 3.91 gears and weighs 3470lbs without driver. Would the Tradewind intake with two 450's work for this combo?
