CJ versus MR

The Medium Riser intake port is a little wider and the port lower opening is higher allowing a straighter shot from intake to valve for the incoming charge. As Dave Shoe pointed out, even though the ports don't line up perfectly Ford used the Medium Riser intake design on the Cobra Jet cast iron intake. The 1967 - 1970 428 Police interceptor engines also used this intake manifold design (in aluminum) with small port C7AE-A and C8AE-H heads which means the head port opening was smaller than the intake port. Again the benefits outweighed the problems caused by a port mismatch.
