Weiand or Dart intake???
Hello, Have a 489in Chevy that I run in a 82 Olds Cutlass. Am going to a Dominator carb from an 850 Demon. Have both Weiand Team G and a Dart Dominator intakes to replace the current team G with a std 4150 Holley flange. All oval port. Question is which would be the preferred choice to put on the car? Anybody made back-back comparisons? Thanks :? :? :?

I got a deal on a Dart 41114000GM single plane intake (ebay) new in the box.
They retail for about $400 I won it for $200 something so Ihad to jump on it.
I've ran it since last year with very good results which was the reason I was asking.
Its really tall with divided runners and by comparison looks equal in height and style to a victor R.
I have it off the motor right now - I semi port matched it to the much bigger merlin intake ports, I didn't get carried away - just basically blended them open alittle, you think doing that will help any?
Thx, Cp
