Hey welcome to FTE!
Have you checked Edelbrock? They have a Performer for both the 2V and 4V heads and a Torker for the 4V only.
The folks in the Clev. engine forum can help you out too.
enjoy the site!

Hey, there may be a little confusion here.....
You asked about a 352 Cleveland and I realize that may just be a typo, BUT Ford made 351 Clevelands (and 351 Windsors) as well as 352 FE engines. They are all different engines, so you may need to verify which engine you have before you search for or buy any parts.
I think the other replies here just assumed the 35'2' was a typo (as did I at first) but just in case.........

I recieved the new 2003 Edelbrock catalog and they make no mention for a 351-C Intake. Did they stop manufacturing or did they not advertise it becauce of it's unpopularity?

Yes, I did forget the 351-M...I don't like them they don't have the torque the 351-C has and the 351-M can't get the Hp gains like the 351-C. Sure, sure, the 351-M is more readliy available its like rebuilding a chevy engine no matter what year you can get the parts for it. But once you get the parts for a 351-C, the modified can't hold a candle to it.

Performance Intake for a "72 351-C?
I use to drag race my Mustang in the late eighties and built quite a few Clevelands. I used the Edelbrock Torker but wasn't happy with it. Built one with CJ heads and used a Holley Strip Dominator which I'm sure they long ago quite making. The engine was great but with out prepped slicks is sucked on the street. Went to 2V heads with 351M valves and a Comp solid cam and ran a Weiand intake with a 2" spacer. Really liked this set up. I don't know if they're still available part #7516 for 2V and 7517 for 4V. It's called the Weiand X-CELerator.
