where to buy edelbrock base and runner set?

hoping to buy one soon, anyone know the best place to get the edelbrock lower manifold and their runners either separately or as a set?
part #?

any idea what the power gains might be and where in the powerband?

thanks!

yeah summitracing.com it's $689.95 for the set EDL-3891 or you can go with the base, which is about $400.00 can't remember the part#. But summit also sells the just the base plate, that's where I got mine from. Or 325.95 for the runners EDL-3865 You can go to the edelbrock web page, and they should have the part#'s on there. What you want to do also, is get the intake ported, better to do it before you put it on, than having to pull it off and redoing it. Just alitte advice Not sure of the powerband, but alot of guys on the board are running that combo, well something like it anyway, the intake, with slp runners. And got some really great track times.

I know somebody who got theirs from Autozone. Cheaper than Summitt.

The ACCEL base doesn't need to be ported like the Edel does...except for minor casting flash anyway...the ACCEL ports are bigger and can be had for $389.99 online....gotta find the link for you.

Also, and oddly enough,the Edel runners are bigger than the ACCEL runners.

I would post pics ( I have both setups) but I having probs with my camera software.

I have heard of fitment problems with the Edel's, don't know if it is true or not.
Also you can get the TPIS Bigmouth directly from them for $425, a very nice base.

thanks for the help guys, i did get the base and runners brand new for $560 off eBay.

considering summit wants $690, I'd say i got a pretty good deal, no?

now i just need to get my friend to port it for me!
