When I put the Performer on my 360 there were bolt holes for everything I needed-it appears to be a well engineered unit. It's been on there for at least 8 years so I really don't remember how much more "ummppphhh" it delivered. What I do remember is the wife after one drive saying "Why didn't you do this 4 years ago????" and she rarely notices anything about cars.

Has anyone tried the offy 360 degree it has the best of both worlds with the split runners on the dyno the offy made more torque than the performer and only slightly less hp(I have more detailed posting on another thread think it is"are all 360 cams the same" ) I would never buy another performer the gains over stock are not good enough. Go for the air gapper just look at the graph on that intake.78 pacer on 75 chero frame thats shortened 10\" and shackle reversal, D60 front with spool,14ff with detroit locker 4.56s in both,500 hp/500 ftlb torque 401,built 727,208 to divorced 205 doubler,on 46x21 ag tires

Flint,
Yah, I feel the 750 is a tad large for your configuration.
I have noticed a considerable amount of performance increase with the SP2P and 625 Carter Comp Carb. I am happy with it's low and mid range response which is mainly where I run my engine.
I fell that any of these manifolds have a good recognizable performance increase.
You could try a smaller carb. I like 625 to 675CFM and a four hole spacer.
Ditto Carrotmans
jeepsr4everWith smaller openings, the velocity of the mixture has to be greater in the SP2P. Under 4,000 RPM, velocity is more important than volume.
Anytime you get bored with that mantle piece, send it my way. I will mount it on a motor. And once I have it installed we can then have a conversation about it. This sounds more fun.My opinion is that the sp2p is a great mantle and conversational piece but doesn?t belong on a motor

Well AMX factor & jeeps4ever.....just won bid on a 2131 Performer on eBay. Be interesting to see what the difference is. Goin for it! Formulas I have run for a 401 indicate 600 CFM would be more like it too Badaboom. Especially at the altitudes we run here. I also have a line on a 625 AFB if it looks like the 750 is still too much carb after the Performer is installed. Thanks for the feedback y'all!
