I don't have both side by side but I've used both manifolds and I believe the Indy 2-D is fractionally lower than the Edelbrock Performer RPM on a 440. Much bigger internally but lower at the carb flange. Someone I'm sure has the dimensions but I'm 99% sure I'm correct, I can run a 5/8" spacer on the Indy and still close the hood of a 70 Charger, can't with an RPM WIZE World's Quickest Diahatsu Rocky (??) 414" Stroker Small block Mopar Powered. 10.84 @ 123...and gettin' quicker! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mWzLma3YGI In Car: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjXcf95e6v0

That's interesting as I would have thought the Indy would be taller

You will even have room for a 1/2 to 1 inch wood spacer to keep your fuel from boiling. The SD performs VERY well. 3.73 gear 3900lbs runs 10.80 on pump gas full exhaust on Hoosier drag radials.

I will say for the original poster's question a ported Holley SD would work great, with work you can get the ports to flow ~320 cfm (~270 ish stock) the Sd is lower than the other 2 WIZE World's Quickest Diahatsu Rocky (??) 414" Stroker Small block Mopar Powered. 10.84 @ 123...and gettin' quicker! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mWzLma3YGI In Car: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjXcf95e6v0

A drop base air cleaner from a Hemi will bolt right on but there's lots of alternatives. Just be careful of the center posts. Lots of hoods dented because they were to tall. I decided to go fiberglass, now I have lots of room. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J3K94cRC1c
