ooops my bad---2.04 and 1.575 is what they are going to be. i have heard that going to big it will shroud the piston or something like that. i am also getting 10.9-1 compression to.

stock is 1.89 in and 1.55 exh, a local speed shop recommended 2.055 int, that would probablly shroud the intake unless its on a 6.0l or bigger right?

I think it would probably be overkill on a 325 cubic inch motor to go bigger than 2.00 on the intake side.

A popular size amung the 346ci crowd is 2.02in.,1.57ex.,. They have a tendancy to go big on alot of things and putting us with 19 less ci, we should probably stay alot smaller.
