SBC aftermarket intake manifold heights

[BeaterShark]

Hopefully this will be usefull to someone.

Here are some manifolds and their (advertised) heights I found when I was looking for a manifold to fit under my hood:
Dual Plane:
Edel Performer (2101):
Front: 3.50" Rear: 4.60"

Performer Air Gap (2601):
Front: 3.72", Rear: 4.92"

Edel Performer RPM (7101):
Front: 4.20", Rear: 5.25"

Edel Performer RPM Air Gap (7501):
Front: 4.20", Rear:5.25"

Holley Street Dominator (300-36):
front 4.44", rear 5.33"

Weiand Stealth (8016):
front: 4.18", rear: 4.50"

Weiand Action Plus (8000):
front: 3.75", rear: 4.63"

Weiand Action Plus (8004):
front: 3.50", rear: 4.00"


Single Plane:
Edel Torker II (5001):
Front: 3.53", Rear: 4.63"

Edel Victor Jr (2975):
4.58" (This is the height at the center of the carb pad and the carb pad is at a 3 degree angle down toward the front)

Weiand Team G (7525):
front: 3.50", rear: 4.50"

Weiand Team G (7530):
front: 3.63", rear: 4.56".

Weiand X-celerator (7546):
front: 4.38", rear: 5.31"

Weiand X-celerator (7547):
front: 3.09", rear: 4.06"



I don't know what the stock manifold height is, but I'd bet it is real close to the Performer.

I don't know what the stock manifold height is, but I'd bet it is real close to the Performer.

This was OE on '71 L48:
Intake Manifold, Cast Iron c/n 3973460 F = 2.69” R = 4.375” ... I measured this several times to verify.

As you can see ... carb pad has healthy angle.
