Need 66-70 Toronado Intake

Please let me know where to find them. I need a low profile 455 intake and would prefer aluminum if possible.

Thanks

Welcome to the site, would you please post your city and state in your profile? I have several Toro intakes but they weigh a ton and you probably want to find one close to you. There are a few aluminum intakes that aren't any higher than the Cutlass 455 cast iron intake, but I don't know of any "low profile" Toro style intakes that are aluminum. John

What year and carb combination? Chokes are different. 66-69 use a divorced choke and 1970 uses a hot air choke.

They shouldn't be difficult to find, as many people as have raped an early Toronado for its engine to stuff in a Cutlass.

Is the Edelbrock Performer too high to clear the hood?

For sure...the Toro stock intake is actually sunken down where carb mounts.
