427 tall deck strikes back!
I am looking for a streetable intake manifold for a "tall-deck" 427 or a means to modify a "regular" 427 manifold to a "tall-deck" (i.e.- spacers/ adapters) Or any other performance parts that are specific to a "tall-deck" motor. I have been able to find few resources....

Dart, Eldebrock, Brodix, World Prouducts and Holley all make or at one time made intakes specifically for a 10.2 tall deck BBC.
Moroso makes the spacer plates that allow you to use a short deck intake on a tall deck motor.
Streetable intake? That all depends on what your definition of "streetable" is. A Mcafee Sheetmetal intake with 2 1400CFM C&S Aresol Billet Dominators could be streetable on a big enough motor with enough gear and converter.

just curious but why are you doing a tall deck motor? they have more rotating mass, poor intake flow and ful distribution, and are a logistical nightmare in most stock chassis cars
