Vortec Intake manifold decision on '67 327
 
I'm rebuilding my first 327 for my 67 c20. I've decided to go vortec on the heads, but I can't decide which intake manifold to go with. I've decided on these heads, and my carb is an Edelbrock 650cfm 4 brl. It may not make much of a difference, but I wasn't sure whether to go with the Summit Racing Stage 3 manifold or the Edelbrock 2116. There are also a ton of header options, and I just don't even know where to start. I'm not concerned with the finish on anything, just performance. Thanks for any suggestions guys. I've finally got a little money together, and a great place to put it all together, and I can't wait to get started.

Also wanted to add that as far as the headers go, this truck is supposed to be a little rough around the edges and loud as $%^!. It's flat black, body's a tiny bit dinged up, and I want headers and exhaust that are going to improve performance and make noise. Ya know... the basics. Thanks guys!

The Elderbrock is worth the extra, IIRC the summit is made off shore. Nothing against Summit, but you the Elderbrock is going to fit correctly and be top quality.

Thanks, I appreciate that guys. I was leaning towards Edelbrock because I already have the nice Edelbrock carb. I'm a union electrician and so I try to buy American made when I can. That makes the decision even easier.
