Manifold Change

[daveintexas]

Hi Guys! I am new to this site, but it looks like everyone on here has good information! I have a '74 with a 454 in it and I want to change out the stock intake. So far, everything I have found, says that it wont fit under the stock hood. Will something like a performer not work if I use a recessed air cleaner??Thanks for any help y'all can give me

A performer with a drop base air cleaner and a 2 1/2 to 3 inch element should work...Watch out for th RPM air gaps as they are too tall on a BB unless you have a L88 hood.....although my RPM air gap fits under mine but I have a SB with the above filter setup


And WELCOME to the CAC!!!!!

Any intake worth the time and expense to install will not fit! The only real gain with a Edelbrock Performer is a weight loss!

Al's 2 cents!
