On my Glastron CVX 20 With Ford 460 it came with Torker manifold. I just got a Performer for 460 and am thinking of swaping. Carb is 750 marine Edelbrock. I plan to use this as family boat on the river and lake pulling tubes and such. JE berkeley pump with AA impeller and Jetovator. so far stock ignition that I will upgrade when finances allow. I have other Ford 460 for Hondo plus my 1ton has 460 so I can always use whichever one does'nt go on the Glastron. :idea:

Yeah, top end is not an issue with this boat, Gotta Hondo for later, this is a wife and kids deal and I probably will spend 90% of the time pulling someone or something and the other 10% coming and going to the spot to pull someone or something. Aim is for a good holeshot and up on plane at low speed. I expect to be plenty happy with top end of 80

JE berkeley pump with AA impeller and Jetovator.
He has this AA impeller which kills the topend anyway.
Merry Christmas

Put the Performer on the boat and find another one for the truck. Ditch the torker. My 2 cents. :)
A Stealth would be good also!

I doubt you'll notice much performance difference between the Torker and Performer, but if you have it why not give it a try. I went with a Stealth on my 460, it ran the same as it did with the stock iron intake. You might want to consider a pertronix ignitor for your stock Prestolite distributor, its a good system for a reasonable price.
I hope your kidding about building an 80 mph CVX-20.
