Performer RPM If you need more hood clearance, the Holley Street Dominator is a good bit shorter, but performs almost identically to the Performer RPM.

As said do the math on the heights you have cuz the RPM is very tall. Otherwise any used/cheap dual plane will work fine.

I'm a big fan of the Holley Street Dominator!
I'm back to running a flat hood and really like the way it fits and performs.

Which intake manifold would be a better choice for a relatively mildly built, street driven 440 with a 750 cfm carb, an Edelbrock CH4B or a Performer RPM? Of the two? The one you already own. If you don't already own one, use the other advice that makes you happiest.

“Mild 440” isn’t enough of a description for me to lean in one direction or another with regards to choosing an intake manifold...... other than to assume a Super Victor, TF, Team G, or other similar type of intakes wouldn’t be the best choice if the motor is in fact “mild”.
What it’s going in, and how it will be used should also be part of the conversation.

If you don't already own one, use the other advice that makes you happiest. for a mild street car, thats prob the best advice right there! Or, you can read Andys intake manifold comparo article, which also has some good info.
