I have seen it done before as well... bought a 69 Nova with a rectangle intake on oval heads... we changed the intake and did not pick up any time in the 1/8th... Suprised the hell out of me.
Then we went back to the rectangle intake AND put on rectangle heads... then we picked up a bunch o time... about 1 second in the 1/8th also put a solid roller bumpstick in it... maybe that was the reason for the pick up in time...
