Thanks for the re-post of the article and the link to get there.
The HSD intake saw a MINIMUM improvement above the Factory RA-IV intake of 3% when we did the testing. The higher HP improvements were in the range of 5%. I did the math on the 18 hp Edelbrock Intake improvement vs the Factory RA-IV intake (assuming a 370 HP number and it calculated out to a 5% improvement. Basically the same ballpark number as the Torquer 1 Intake. So I believe the article and the data is spot on with the info. Thanks Bruce. ps The Holley has equal throttle bores. The Q-Jet does not (as all know). Of course the Holley carb would work fine as the gas speed thru the barrels is less than the QJet Primaries and the air/fuel can make the turn without hitting the plenum floor. If it hits the floor, the fuel drops out of suspension.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
