Thinking about switching to this manifold in my 57 f100. The injector angle worries me though. Thoughts?

not ideal for your setup at all
significantly better off with a gt40 intake
as the pre tune info states its the greatest intake ever created for an na sbf under 400rwhp

I don't really have the ability to use a gt40. The only manifold that would fit is the victor efi Victor 5.0. The brake booster interferes with the intake, i have a tubular i would love to use. I understand a single plane isn't the best option. This is the best rpm range i have found in a single plane.

I see
seems as though youve answered your own question
go for it, im sure itll work out fine as intake isnt too terribly important

Injector angle isn't something to worry about?

I wouldn't be concerned with it personally.
Even the worst efi intake is still better than the best carb'd intake as far as fuel control.
I daily'd a super victor efi intake on a stock 351w for over a year and no problems.

It's not that different from what I'm running. Mine's an Edelbrock gen 1 Pro-Flo intake manifold which has been described to me as '
like' a Victor Jr but with
slightly smaller ports.
It's all I've ever run but I've never been aware of a shortcoming that can be attributed to the intake.
