Well I got my car all up and running with the holley intake and 1.72 rockers.

I have to say I am nothing but disappointed. It does pull a bit harder up top, to about 5900-6000rpm now.

But the lowend loss of power is HUGE.

My car used to pull HARD from 2500. Now it takes near 4000rpm to get good power.

The Holley intake was MUCH bigger than my old edelbrock so I guess thats the price I pay.

The track will tell the differences. But driving on the street certainly isnt as fun as it was.
