With the set up I have I think that the single plane is the way to go. edlbrock makes one and so does dove.dont know which is better both make a sigle plane.dove compairs there single plane to edlbrock duel plane, but not single to single. I wounder how the edlbrock single plane works.any help?

I don't know if you've looked at a WEIAND, but they make a single plane for the FE. WEIAND is now owned by Holley and here's a link: http://www.holley.com/HiOctn/ProdLin...AMSM/7282.html

I have one of these I plan on putting on a 428 I'm building, but I don't think it will be running for at least 6 months, so I can't say how it performs.

ha ha very funny streets

GOT THE DOVE INTAKE IN AND IT LOOKS PRETTY SHARP, NOT CHEAP THOW.

Have you run it yet?
Let us know what you think.
Also if you get a chance can you send a few Pic's,I'm wanting to see the runner's"how much bigger they are then like the RPM and the PI intakes.
Thanks,

I'LL SEND PICS ASAP. DOVE CLAIMS THIS IS THE INTAKE THAT FORD SHOULD HAVE BUILT. DOVE ALSO SAYS THAT THERE INTAKE CREATES MORE TORK AND HORSEPOWER AT 3000 RPM THAN THE PERFORMER RPM. DOVE SINGLE PLAIN VRS. EDELBROCK DUAL PLAIN.

STILL PUTTING THE MOTOR TOGETHER.

2800 stall ,411 posi ,pk hp 6050 , pk torque 4770 rpm harland sharp roller rockers with shaft end supports, and went with a Ford Power Parts PI style aluminum intake with the original Holley 735 that works well with my application...Street / strip........Chris M.

Mach1,,

What all have you done to your 427??What are the Internals of it?
I'm getting ready to start on my 390/445 cubic inch stroker
BORE = 4.080
ROD LENGTH = 6.385"
ROD RATIO = 1.50
BLOCK HEIGHT = 10.170
I wish I had desk Top so that I could start putting some things together and get some bass lines to go with on what will make the best HP.
Thanks,
Chris P.

Cobraf100...the block is the original 428cj .030 pistons,10.5/ 1 comp. original crank .010 /.010 , 390 rods with 3/8 arp rod bolts, original 428cj iron heads ported and polished with hardened seats, I did some oiling passage massaging,.. original C6 trans .improved for street strip use. I put about 4000 miles a year on the car and drag race at two or three events a season at Maple Grove and Cecil Co. Dragways and it has been really reliable !!!(execpt when the MSD box crapped out on the way to Carlisle....).....Good luck with your project...sounds pretty cool !!!!.......Chris M. (Mach1)
