Default 302 upper intake

Hi

Building a 331 stroker engine and was wondering whether I should be upgrading the the standard 302 truck intake? Does it flow well enough to handle 350hp?

I have been reading that the stock Truck 302 lower intake is great but cant find much on the upper.

If it should be replaced, what is the recomended aftermarket setup? Or are they all pretty much the same?

Appreciate any help

Regards

Adam

The stock intake is actually a really good design. It should easily support 350.

I'd use the stock truck upper even if I was building a 363.

If you have airflow concerns, you could always go for a larger throttle body and BBK makes two of those.
