Intake Manifold for 427?
I'm dropping in a 427 which has an Edelbrock intake which won't fit under the hood. Anybody have recommendations other than the stock intakes? I'm having a hard time finding a stock aluminum one and the only one I've run across so far that may fit is the Torker II. It's a single plane though, so I'm still looking. Tnx!

Torker II® Manifolds (2500 to 6500 rpm)
These single-plane, low-rise intakes work well for high-rpm, high-performance street applications. Ideal for applications where hood clearance is limited, they produce gains in top-end horsepower with adequate throttle response. Not intended for mileage or emissions applications, they are only for high-performance vehicles.

I've had several local requests for it, so if they don't pan out I'll have it in the For Sale section here.

Holley Street Dominator Manifold
Long discontinued but still available on ebay. Low rise single plane with small phenum and runners so it works wellover a wide rev range. I assume you have oval port heads? Im running one on my 70 with a half inch spacer.
