Your manifold choice needs to be based on the components of your engine/drivetrain for it to work together. There is no real performance improvement just by changing distributors.

What rear end gears? How will you use the car? What carb?

A Performer is the better choice for a street-driven car. A Torker is probably better for the drag strip.

The edelbrock performer is probably your best bet.
