Holly or Edelbrock?

ed1371 · 10-15-2001, 09:51 AM

I am finally going to get some real power mods and trying to decide to go with either the Holly Systemax kit or the edelbrock performer package. If you have one of these are you pleased with the results? Would you have done anything different?
Along with the kit I am getting 1.6 rollers, 24# injectors, MAF recalabrated, and a better radiator. Am I missing anything?
I want to do it right the first time so any advice will be appreciated!

Holley has an Excellent Intake, good heads(equivalent to GT-40 Turbo Swirls) an a piss poor cam. 350 hp I am kinda weary about that claim!!

Edelbrock has a great Intake(Performer RPM), better heads, and a good cam. 337 hp Probably fairly accurate....more accurate than Holley's claim.

With the SystemMax kit being cheaper, I would get it, port the heads and get a good cam, then you will have a for sure 360 hp ride.
