27 lbs over boss? What does that mean?
I would imagine it means weight
yes I know but 27lbs heavier? Seems like an awful lot.

The guys over at Edelbrock were telling me that the price range is going to be half the price or a little bit less than half the price of the current intake manifolds out... the 27/lbs is meaning Ft/lbs of torque advertising that it
has a 10x better low end over the boss manifold. The guys over at Edelbrock were really hitting this design hard with people who were looking to go nitrous with their build.

I kinda doubt that intake will cost less than $400, Their cast LS intake runs 600. Weight wise the LS intake runs around 12lbs so it's not terribly heavy.
Edelbrock rates their stuff at the flywheel so that must've been a crap tune to gross a 60 point spread like that, that net's what 360 lb of rw torque and 415 rw hp?
Not knocking it , hopefully it just needs better tuning.
You can buy boss or cj pretty cheap now. Let's not forget that both of these intakes will not bolt into 15 plus car without lower mounts and/or larger cowl hood. Does the Edlebrock fit? If not, a little late to the party IMO.
