Are you talking about the dports or rpms vs Hiports? If you are referring to d ports. The Kre version is superior than the edelbrocks...not sure on the other..

Why do you feel the KRE d's are superior to Edelbrocks d-port?

I would say the D ports are more in line with my budget as long as I could get the 455 into a 600-700 HP range and still have the option of stretching them out some down the road as far as streetable flow. From my limited understanding having a crazy high flowing head is not necessarily the best head to run on the street with a gear like a 3.55 and a mild 3000 stall converter. Power in the mid range seems to me to be as or more important for a car that will be mostly a street car but also raced some on the weekends.
