• MANIFOLD: The Torker II 440 manifold is designed for 413, 426 (wedge), & 440 c.i.d. Chrysler V8 engines, and is recommended
for street high performance and race vehicles only. The Torker II manifold is of single-plane design utilizing modern air flow
technology. It provides good low rpm response plus increasing performance above the 5000 rpm range.
• EGR SYSTEM: This manifold will not accept stock EGR (exhaust gas recirculation equipment). EGR systems are used on most
1972 and later model vehicles. Check local laws for requirements.
• ACCESSORIES & INSTALLATION ITEMS: Major recommendations are listed below. See our catalog for details. To order a
