Default Intake manifold question

OK Guru's, help me out. I have a basically stock 80" EVO on a '99 Heritage, I am a BIG guy and plan on doing engine Mods. in the future (as funds allow). I have an intake seal leaking and was wondering if I should just go ahead and change the stock intake to a performance one, and which one you suggest? Or should I wait and do the whole fuel system at one time OR just keep it stock?

I'M ALL EARS !!! Thanks in advance...

That's a BIG question! I suggest you simply replace the seals for now and make good. There are a few Harley specialists here on HDF, any one of whom can advise you on tuning your bike when the time comes. Spend a little time reading through these Tech threads and you will soon find them!
