dual quad 427 sohc intakes

[hbstang]

is this dove tunnel wedge style intake somthing that would out perform a stock ford dual quad intake?is it more of a higher rpm intake? say on a 482-520 inch sohc engine for street strip?

I did an SOHC intake comparo years ago, and that intake out-performed the factory 2X4 dual plane from 5500 on up.  I also had a Munro 2X4 intake, which was better than either of them between 5500 and 6500.  The single 4 intakes were down significantly on power, but I got one from John Vermeersch that had been converted to a Dominator flange, and that one was 50 HP better than the other single 4 manifolds.

if i could find one at a reasonable price i would run it,instead of dual quad factory one i have.
do you maybe have any of the data for that test?i found it on the old fe forum 2008 but no pictures show up.

Sorry but that info is not available at the moment.  The computer where it is stored is on the fritz, and I haven't gotten it fixed yet...

It is highly unlikely to find one at all, let alone reasonably priced. They are very difficult to find and quite pricey. It's the only cast single plane intake that will fit under a hood. EVERYONE wants one...

theres one on ebay for $6,000 right now.its from dove,and not sure what condition its in.maybe jay should cast up some intakes for the sohc.
