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

 

I am in MAine,
I have a 68 Toronado 455 intake $200

 

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.

 

I have a '67 toro intake sandblasted and painted in primer - excellent condition cast iron - $75 plus the ride

 

I have heard that someone does make the Toro intake in aluminum...try a web search or post on realoldspower.

 

Is the Edelbrock Performer too high to clear the hood?

 

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

 

and the edelbrock performer is actually taller than a stock manifold by 1 3/4", iirc.
