So what is the point of a REPOP Race intake that can run high 9s, on a tempest, years ago, if you only want to talk pure street cars. Why do you need 421 SD NASCAR CARBS (Factory Jetting) that is driven 95% of the time at 2000 rpm?

Mike's car is a full size car that will have more load, (Like Kaufmans car and Zajacs car) and will probable be driven at more than 2000 rpm on average vs your vehicle.

Lots of conflicting info here.
