Default 306 build rpm 2 too much intake?

like the title reads i am in the process of building a 306 for my coupe and i was contemplating intakes. i dont plan on stroking this motor, the setup is 10.5 comp, afr165, xe270hr. my plan is just a street cruiser that will pull nicely on the top end (hopefully in front of some pesky chevy's running around here) should i spend the $$$$ on the rpm 2 or just get a cobra lower ported?

Both will do the job so it's up to your personal taste as to which one to get.

i agree ....

I'd personally get the upper and lower of the cobra intake ported and polished

for your application it will be more than enough...
