i beg to differ..cool day they will run the same,,on a hotter day a air gap style intake will shine keeping the intake air charge cooler..
the only intake that will make a differance is a edlbrock air gap..that would be my only choice for a stock set up..

Thanks for the feedback.
Well, mine have cracked anyways so i would prefer to change them rather than weld them. Stock manifold is a bit expensive.. Can anybody point me in the direction or at least provide me a part number for an intake manifold that will fit my Gen v 502 efi's?

I don't think your going to find a manifold that will work with the rest of the Merc FI system. Is this what you have?

You could try posting in the parts wanted section on boating forums or search the net for used ones. Or you could always chang to carbs. 2K for just the manifold section is rediculous.

I know of 4 502 magnum MPI intake set ups, two are stock and two are ported.
The ported ones pushed a Cafe Racer into the low 70's, I would guess that would take 475-500 HP.
Also have the cams and computers from the ported ones. The first thing you need on any of the BBC motors is a good exhaust.
