Better intake?

Which would be a better intake, the factory sidewinder or an Edelbrock Performer RPM? It is for a 428 build coming up.
Thanks,
Brandon

I'd take the sidewinder everyday of the week, and I currently run the idlebrock rpm. Thats as nonbias as it gets.

The older F427 Edelbrock intakes are closely compared to the sidewinders. I like the sidewinder also. One of the best Ford intakes out there. I sure wish Dove or BT would repop these. The originals are expensive and getting hard to find a good one without paying a small fortune.
