    Taking the B&A intake off and upgrading to an E-Boss, I can hardly wait to fire it back up.

    Those intakes don't look a whole lot different.

    What was the 'selling point' of the Ebrock intake?
    Do you think it is different enough to make a noticable difference in running?
    Is the quality good?

    Looks nice!

    The runners are longer (new school), edelbrock quality is great and it looks better so that worth some horses by itself. I have had some sealing issues with the B&A, Gasket wicking oil, oil leaking out of the bolt holes.

    I beleave the angle is off, and before anyone ask. I have tryed different gasket brands and the heads have had only .010 removed. Gasket choices are limited because of the 2v and the water ports. Most cleavland gaskets do not have room to cut in the water port. the boss 302 intake gasket is to large at the intake ports.
