Exclamation 95 F150 5.0 Intake Manifold Help

Has anyone installed/ or heard good news about the edelbrock truck intake manifold? i have the k+n cold air intake kit on it. But the truck is still chocked up being the stock motor it is. will the aftermarket intake manifold add a good amount of HP to the truck? will bigger injectors be needed or just an adjustable fuel pressure regulator to tune? and will it increase my gas mileage?
Any thoughts or ideas on this or doing something else to free up power? thanks guys

It'll add like 30-35 ft-lbs of torque to a stock motor and only a few hp, I am putting one on my 393 stroker, see my gallery for pics. No changes would be needed in order to install it.

Not for $525, it's not a modification you make to a stock engine, unless you're going to make further modifications down the line. My truck will be running about 400hp, so in my case, a stock intake wouldn't cut it by far.

intake

yea i know it would be most beneficial on a modified motor. but even on a stock motor it has to give it some torque and give better gas mileage correct? the 5.0 truck motor is choked up. it requires alot of throttle to maintain speeds mostly on the highway and mid range. So allowing it to breathe better resulting in less throttle should increas the mileage right? What do you guys think?
