Which intake manifold?

[Hawaii50]

Which intake manifold is best suited to fast road driving? I'm assuming it's between the 2018 and the cobra jet?

My concern with the cobra jet setup is the loss of the front brace. Open to suggestions.

I believe folks have dropped the engine in order to retain the shock tower brace.

Does the shock tower brace make that big of a difference???

2018 is much less expensive, can make good top end power and slightly better torque will support 7700 rpm. CJ makes best top power good torque, will support 8500 rpm, and looks good at cars and coffee.
