i'm about to put one on a 355 i'm working on for someone. near as i can tell that is about the best intake you can buy for the street. hope it works half as good as the catalog says.

I have a stealth on my 355 with AFR heads,Comp Xtreme energy cam,10:1,Demon 750 carb,and I love it.I suggest to get it,but that is just my opinion.Motor is still fresh,only about 500
miles,but the car is fast as all hell!!Good luck.

I had one on my 87 camaro with a 355. I think you will like it, a definite upgrade from the performer.

Later,
Aaron

I've got a Stealth too, and am very happy with it. I'd definatly recommend it over a Performer, or even a Performer RPM.

Just for the record, I got one too. But it is the only intake i've ever had so I don't have anything to compare to.

Not a bad manifold. The port exits are kinda' tapered down on my Stealth to fit smaller ported heads than my TFS's. Nothing an evening with a grinder can't take care of as the actual runner is very short compared to a performer rpm.

IMHO, this is one of the very few manifolds a port match will really pay major dividends.

I can't say i personally had one. But the Head guy at the machine shop i use would shoot me dead if i told him i was using one.

He absoluetly hates them, and the Team G intake from stealt.

He flowtests the heads, then the heads with the intake on it.. and has never had a combo, that the wieands improved the flow numbers.

From what he's told me about them.. avoid them.
