Looks like I have to go back to stock manifold on my 70RR to clear air grabber. (running eddy performer RPM) What is the best one to use? Lot of diffrent years with diffrent carb holes. thanks Brian

I believe the 70-71 intakes are the best.You may try the edelbrock ch4b to see if you have the clearance.I have one with hogged out bolt holes if you want to try it for fitment.Cover the shipping and it's yours.

He means where the intake bolts to the heads, the holes are elongated or oversized. Someone may have had a hard time fitting it on their engine and opened up the bolt holes. Intake is still very usable! And that design is very similiar in size to the stock manifold....thus the offer to try that one.

Have you tried a CH4B Edelbrock? Almost the same height but much better in overall performance. There are still plenty out there for sale.

Hood clearance...how about the Holley Street Dominator? Does not look like the factory dual plane but is available new AND used, is an excellent performer and is low enough to where you can dial in the exact carb position/height with a spacer.

Thanks for all the great info. Now is that Edlebrock manifold cast with the CH4B in it or is there another number to go by? I have looked at all the usuall sites here, craigs list, e-bay, amazon. is there anyone that might have one of these manifolds for sale other than the one that gch has offered me?

I had to cut my aircleaner veloicty type base on my 383 in a N96 70 Bee. Then couldn't run a wingnut bcause it hit the hood.

It's just called the CH4B, no other name. It's a good intake and definitely the one you want.

I use the Holley Street Dominator and it fit under my stock flat hood with room to spare. I thought the Holley SD was shorter then the Eddy intake ? I know the Street Dominator works good and has good low end for a single plane. Ron

It is shorter than the RPM intake, but taller than the CH4B. I have heard from others as well that the SD is too tall for an air grabber setup.

YOU GUYZ and your CH4B !

IF that intake is superior to most intakes out there ... THEN WHY didn't Eddy repop that intake AS-IS .. just like it was produced back in the 60's ?

IT IS SHORTER

IT DOES The air cleaner has a velocity stack built into the base. I had to shorten mine. Cut it,welded a plate, cut a hole for the carb. If you want it to seal with the duct work that's what you do. Or store the stock air cleaner.

I think it is a little bit better than stock. Where is that manifold test that MM did? The stocker went to 500 didn't it?

The CH4B is about .4 taller than the stock intake, and the SD is about .9 taller than stock. The CH4B is a nice improvement over stock cast iron hp intake

I don't think all of them had Chrysler numbers on them.

What did you run on you BB's when you were racing back then Doc?
