Now I understand a little more what you want to do with this 428. As for the Performer intake on the Edelbrock heads? I would talk to Edelbrock again telling them exactly what you're telling us here. The heads you mention have been evaluated by numerous publications very highly. I thought they would work well with the Performer intake and great with the Performer RPM intake for higher RPM operations. You mentioned in your first post that you were primarily interested in street operation and that's why I feel you'd be pleased with the Performer intake. I also have read that the Performer cam is a great street cam designed to idle smoothly and provide a lot of low end torque. I think the specs you have provided on that cam are similar to the C6OZ-B cam I mentioned earlier. I'm guessing here based on some past comparisons. Edelbrock tech support is very helpful. I think you'd be wise to go with their entire Performer system, intake, 750 CFM carb, cam/lifters and the heads if E-brock tech support says okay on that. I think they will. Personally, I did run a Edelbrock Performer(the RPM wasn't available at the time)on a stock 428CJ with C6OZ-B cam. That intake with their 750 carb, provided tremendous off the line performance. It pulled just as hard to 5,500 RPM as the port matched PI intake I had run previously.
