yes it's going to increase HP / TQ by a little.

what are you trying to do with the car. daily driver, race it, etc...

i dont know if this is true for b series but for d series with the skunk intake manifold you have to boost fuel pressure to gain power out of it...but with the edelbrock you gain power without boosting the fuel pressure

your for sure not going to get 22%, we have 4 bangers not big v8's

it's not really going to do much unless you have other parts that can utilize the new air flow. ported head, turbo, etc...
