Default Edelbrock VS. Skunk2

I'm to lazy to search.

I know Edelbrock is supposed to be better than Skunk2 but which edelbrock. There are 2, the PerformerX (looks just like the skunk2) and the VictorX which has shorter runners and a huge plenium.

I'm going to be running NA B16 for now but later maybe a mall turbo setup (250-300whp) something streetable for a DD.

Vickie-X for 350+ whp turbo

Performer-X for NA and light duty turbo, and it looks nothing like the Skank3.

the skank 2 manifold is just a stock type r manifold with skunk 2 on it.
I have the old school jg edelbrock manifold and I feel better using it. it requires more work to use but its better.

I was asking cause I found a Skunk2 for $50 used. Could I get that one bored out or would it be better just to resell it on ebay?

Could I run the VictorX without haveing to modify it?
