Suggestions on Intake Manifold

Hey guys just looking to see what u would suggest for an intake manifold since i need to replace mine, i got a chevy crate 350 in my camaro and im leaning more towards edelbrock since i got a 4 barrel carb from edelbrock. Im not too smart when it comes to car parts or anything but just seeing if i should stay away from anything, and it doesnt need to be polished.

Need some more info. Carb size, what types of connectins (EGR ), maybe even need to look at hood clearance based on the air cleaner you running?

Which crate motor do you have? Many of the GMPP crates come with rebadged Edelbrock intakes aleady.

If it's not a rebadged intake already I'd suggest the Edelbrock RPM Air Gap if you have the clearance.

if the car is the one in your avatar, hood clearance shouldn't be an issue.

What are you talking about?

You had the daytona hood and there wasn't enough clearance?
