Larry, I say no. That said, I think you know I ran that mismatch for years, using an Edlebrock RPM dual plane manifold atop my then 650+HP 468 and it ran great. Rich Biebel aka scdiv1 over at DRR built the engine and did the fitment of the manifold. Ultimately a Brandywine aka Larry Woodward, fully ported Weiand single plane manifold ran .about 02 quicker. Best Et with the dual plane was 10.11 and single plane was 10.07 in better air.
