Re: [Chevelle-list] Edelbrock Performer RPM and Air Gap Intake Manifolds on 66/67 Chevelles
Chevrolet offered the L78 engine option from 1965-70. None of these 375hp BB's had a low-rise intake. So,surely there's an aftermarket dual plane out there that will fit your car. It's hard for me to believe a Victor will fit and a Air Gap won't. Victors are pretty tall intakes.

I checked out Weiland, and they offered several, including the "Stealth", model 8018 described below. Although they menton hi-rise, when I put in 66 Chevelles, they have no special notes... Available for both oval (8019) and rectangular port (8018) cylinder head equipped big block Chevrolet engines, are Weiland's advanced hi-rise "Stealth" manifolds. These are the most advanced dual plane. 180 deg. intakes on the market. They combine excellent botton-end performance with an exceptionally broad power curve that extends to 6800 RPM. They are ideally suited to a number of applications, including high performance street and marine use, E.T. Bracket racing, and even RVs, tow vehicles, etc. "Stealth" manifolds are designed to be used in conjunction with more aggressive camshaft profiles, high performance ignition and exhaust systems, etc. They have a square bore carburator pad to accommodate 650-850 cfm aftermarket carburators.

Have you thought that your starter might be drawing

I've checked that! When I use two batteries
The starter engages
properly/fully!
So I'm convinced it's the battery that is too
weak to handle the starter, making
it engage only partially.

I believe if your only engaging a small part of the gear you need to
shim it closer to the flywheel. You'll wear out the bendix gear and get
stuck some place. Same thing happened to me.Pelle Andersson
