Scott,
If you use an Edlebrock Performer manifold for the 455 you will have to raise the engine cover about 2+ inches. If you use the aluminum manifold that was made for the coach patterened after the factory intake with upgrades it will fit without modes

Not sure if the summit item is the correct, but only one listed for the 455.
