David's engine builder dyno'd the motor with both intakes, I don't have the figures before me, but the Yates intake made something like 40 bhp more above 5000 rpm. David did indeed elect to run the Yates intake. For every extra bhp the Yates intake made above 5000 rpm, the motor lost an equal amount below 5000 rpm. I would have selected the Performer personally. You probably know that about me by now.

Good point Dan, I glossed right over the carb last night. I have witnessed the 750 Holley take motors into the 500 bhp range, and the HP series, which weren't around 20 years ago, will do even better. But I can't argue that you can probably bolt 40 bhp on by going to an 850 HP carb, especially on a 377 stroker motor. On the street I would advise Art to run the smaller carb. Isn't Dennis A runnng a 750?
