Edelbrock Big Block Intake - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just traded a rusty 71/72 Chevelle rear bumper for a Edelbrock Performer 2-0 intake manifold. Good deal, ..Yes. My question is what does the 2-0 denote? Do all BB performer intakes have this or do i have something special? Its going on the Suburban 402.

I think the 'O' is probably for oval port heads.

Performer 2 Oval Port,its the common Performer Intake youd get from any parts vendor new ones are $160 at Summit part # Edl-2161 ,When i have used ones they sell for $100 if they are real clean,and down.its the best intake for stock to mild mannered Big Blocks but remember if you use a Holley,Carter,Edelbrock Square bore carb you need the adapter gasket.they are a spreadbore intake good for idle to 5500 rpm,and you dont need anything above 5500 in a mild big block.id shy away from the RPM intakes unless you have a lumpy cam,good exhaust,good sized carb.I run that intake on all Big Blocks,unless it calls for more.

OK, so the 2= dual plane
O= oval port
It makes cents now. Thanks dudes.
