Description: PerformerŽ Manifolds (idle to 5500 rpm)
Performer manifolds are dual-plane, low-rise intake manifolds with a 180° firing order and patented runner design that you won't find in other brands. This patented design greatly improves torque over a wide rpm range for excellent throttle response, especially off-idle through the mid-range. Throttle Performers are ideal for passenger cars, trucks, 4x4s, tow vehicles and RVs. There are EGR and non-EGR versions available for most domestic V8 and some V6 engines. Most Performer intakes are 50-state street legal, when used with the correct carburetor and in the correct application. Check the individual listings for detailed information.

Pros: Excellent low RPM performance
Cons:

This could be the best all around manifold for a Jeep with a V8. It provides good torque and horsepower across it's rpm range. I installed this onto my CJ-5 which is equipped with an AMC 360 V8. This engine was tired and needed a rebuild - See the rebuild article - The engine was going to serve in a Jeep that was primarily going to run trails and needed to provide good torque for slow trail riding.


Installation was performed with the engine out of the Jeep and was rather straight forward. An Edelbrock Performer Camshaft and Holley Pro-Jection system complemented the rest of the set up. The Jeep's performance is exceptional. It's trail manners are predictable and provide excellent slow rpm managability.
