I have the Brodix 2001 on my 496 BBC. It is a really nice manifold. If you have the clearance and your engine is tuned for it one of the newer intakes on the market for the BBC is the SNIPER Jr. from pro-filer.

I ran a dart from 1995 to 2000 in the ocean flushed it all the time than sold it to friend with the matching heads he ran it until last year and now replaced it. but when he ran it he did not flush it out so it had 5years of being flushed out and 7years of straight salt so 12 years running salt threw a dart sounds good. I am going to brodix through MR.Horsepower call Dean he will take care of you. I heard the merlins aren't as good as dart or brodix.

Manifold
Wanted to thank everyone for thier input,thats what i was looking for.Always liked the Dart an Brodex but never used one.Have two Merlins one for a 4150 carb thats great and one for a 1050 thats a piece of junk.I think Jegs gets about $375. for the brodex and about $100. more for the dart,seeing i have to order out a new 345 head i'll probably just put it on the same order.Thanks again.
