This one doesn;t idle as strong, may lose some off-idle 60foot capability ;

Since yo have a .030 455, then the second manifold is better for the full RPM range.

I have the first one. I'm gonna do a port match and run it. I got a deal on it plus I have a shaker and it's supposed to be a good fit.

Since I have a shaker I'm glad I have the first one. I don't plan on spinning it that high since it has cast reconditioned rods and forged pistons.(I did have the bottom end balanced) Do you think a port match along with mild porting of my 6x's would be worth anything? I was wondering because I guess this is a restrictive intake. I'm looking for good off-idle grunt. The cam choice is still up in the air. I want an authoritative idle but I also want good low end pull. I have 3.08's and a TH350 and a TH400. I also have a 3.42 gear set but I'm thinking the 3.08's will be nice on the freeway!
Sorry for the double post. Service is slow tonight... http://motorhead.iwarp.com .030 over 455. Balanced and blue-painted.

I've always leaned towards the Torker IIs for all but sub-10s. Tweaked of course.

What a bunch of homos. So will this Performer intake be any good or will it kill any advantage I may gain with ported heads? (Oh yea, I got it for $20 [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]) <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> A friend that we race with runs a '64 Tempest (weighs about 3800# w/driver) with a 455, it has ported (probably a street-port job) 6X heads and a Performer intake along with a Holley carb (not sure but I think an 850). The car runs in the 12-teens at 2800 ft. altitude with a hydraulic 236 degree cam, 4.10 gears and 9X29.5 slicks, the Performer can't be choking it too badly. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] Guy Mazza used to run an un-modified Performer/750 DP Holley on a 455 with bone-stock #16 heads and a RAIV cam/1.6 rockers in his '69 GTO. No port-matching or clean-up at all. The car has 4.10 gears and 10.2X29.5 slicks and weighed about 3600# w/driver, ran high 11s at near sea-level and 12.30s at a 2800 ft. altitude. The Performer intake works good, use it with confidence.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
