The stock intake is plenty unless you plannin on 1500+ hp :)

Ok so the stock L92 intake is good for 1500hp but I'm down 2 and I know it's all in the tune but many have pointed out the intake and I was pushing the stock block but I would like to know of something better than the stock intake just for insurance would like to be 650 to 700rwhp untill I get a good tranny I'd like to see 750 800rwhp chit or more lol but I'd call it at 775rwhp I think :burnout:

The obvious question is what kind of failure did your engines have.
You must know what happened to the first one,
do know yet what happened to the recent one?

If they are 5 or 7 piston failures, you need a new tuner or there may some merit to the
theories on boost and stock intakes.
imho

First one broke 5 and 7 at 14psi made 717rwhp stock bottom end and im the type that likes to push things more than normal :( lol sencond one the rings got friend again 5 and 7 this time 11.5psi right at 620rwhp see a tuner will tell u the limits and I trust my tuner with out questioning him he has tune to date manny of cars for me and I'm aware of the limits to a stock l92 by now I think lol I'm kinda going for speed like roll racing vs 1/8 and 1/4 do want it as a track truck anymore I might detune this one after I put new pistons untill I build the stroker 408 or a 418 no too sure

Unless you're just set on spending money, I really don't see the 5/7 cylinder problems being an issue. If you did want to swap it out, I'd go with a FAST, though. I know fitment issues have been a big complaint, but that'd be my only option, because the whole 90 degree elbow/sheetmetal deal is not exactly ideal for low-end. Most cars (and trucks, if you run into them), turn serious rpm's that run those setups.

Ok ok see I'm going for top end now want it to pull hard on roll racing vs the track

I would have your injectors tested since you keep burning up the same cylinders.
