I mostly use the Gear splitter just for Overdrive
With 3.90 gear in the back there is Plenty of Low end..and with the Longer runners of the 2bbl intake the Torque at usable RPM's (700-2000) is much better than with a aluminum 4bbl intake..I know everyone wants the Power above 2500 RPM's that you get with a 4bbl intake...for me it is Of no concern
Hard to beat the 2bbl intake for low speed duties and fuel economy
Once the engine is fuel injected I think it will be a 390 like no other around here
