    NICE!
    I was thinking about listing my 11" wide Cragars in the barter section for just such a deal!

    SCORE!

    Yes. And I'll also caution you in celebrating though. Unless you like a soggy bottom end, or build the engine and drivetrain to use what the Vic Jr offers, you may be a bit dissappointed after bolting it on and takin it for a spin. It's an excellant intake when used for it's intended purpose, but not a good choice for most street driving unless the engine's built to tame it.

    One other weird thing about the Vic.................the carb pad is level, so your aircleaner will seem tilted up in front, that can make things interesting in hood clearance sometimes

    If it is indeed a vic junior I would be willing to trade you for an Edelbrock Rpm Performer, it would be more suited for your car, and fit under your hood

    Justin, Don't listen to all these old fogeys! But DO swap that cam and look into better heads while you put that intake on.

    That thing will wake up around 3500 rpm and pull through 7 or 8k, but your cam and heads won't keep up with it.

    But, having said this, my Torker gave me the same issues, and I drove it a long time on a cam similar to what you have, and it was fun. But the new cam made things really interesting. So if you don't mind less-than-optimal performance now, but room to grow, slap it on!!!

    --EDIT--Oops. He slipped a post about heads in while I was typing...

    I would trade you a set of gt40 heads for that 9", but I gave them away a couple months ago...

    Gave away a set of P heads last summer.

    Hmmm. I am giving too many of these away.
