Edelbrock Performer RPM Dual-Quad Air-Gap for Small-Block Chevy

If you're looking to get more power out of your classic Small-Block Chevy, especially in the 1500 to 6500 RPM range, this Edelbrock Performer RPM Air-Gap dual-quad intake manifold is a solid choice. It's designed for Chevrolet 262 through 400 cubic inch engines from 1955 to 1986, and fits a wide variety of vehicles like the Chevrolet C10, Camaro, and GMC C1500. This manifold stands about 1-5/8 inches taller than Edelbrock's low-profile C-26 intake, giving it more volume for better airflow.

What really sets this manifold apart is the unique Air-Gap design. It creates a separate chamber around the intake runners, keeping them away from the hot oil in the engine valley. This cooler runner temperature means the air and fuel mixture entering the cylinders is denser, which translates directly into more power. The large runners are optimized for performance, and the dual-quad setup allows for a massive amount of air to be fed to your engine when paired with two carburetors. Keep in mind that this manifold will not fit under the stock hood of a Corvette from the years it fits.

To get the most out of this dual-quad setup, you'll want to use a progressive throttle linkage kit, like Edelbrock's PN 7094, to ensure smooth operation from idle to wide-open throttle. This is a well-built piece designed for serious performance gains on a wide range of Small-Block Chevy applications.
