Would I be faster in the 1/4 mile with say a Vic jr intake and 1000 cfm carb, vs eldelbrock performer intake with 650cfm blow thru running 10lbs boost with the Paxton?

This is on my 393w. The Vic jr and Paxton won't fit under the hood together which is why im runnig the low rise intake. Curious on opinions.

that seems like a really small carb, i'm running a 750 blow thru on my 302. I don't know what heads ur running, but that performer intake and carb seems to be choking you out

If you are a blow thru set up. You won't need anything bigger that a 750. I would for sure dump that weak performer intake. I don't know where your power band is, but at least move to a rpm air gap intake. Post some more details about the motor.
