Hello,
I might be close to removing the stock intake manifold on my 455, and was wondering the advantages of replacing it with a aluminum intake.
I would only consider the low profile manifold. I will not cut my Hatch cover.

The #1 best thing that I can see would be not ever needing the heat block-off plates, #2 would be a new product without any cracks(hopefully), and #3 would be the weight.

Any other pro's of con's?
I have searched prior post and can only find info for the 403's

Thank you,
Scott.
