I have a question about intake manifolds. eventually I am going to have to upgrade my manifold/head combo. This will unfortunately require swapping to a carb style combo as I have yet to find any aftermarket heads or intake manifolds for the EFI 460. I found this manifold on summit and was interested because it has injector boss's built in and ready to be drilled. The problem I see is that it's operating range is 3500 to 8000 RPM's. I do the most of my normal driving between 1500 to 2200 RPM's. If I was to install this, what would it do to driveability?

At least it did not happen when you really needed it

Thanks for the info about the intake manifold. I kind of figured as much but wanted confirmation. I plan on putting the carb'd heads on the engine but, I am going to stick with the fuel injection. That leaves me with two options. 1: take a carb'd manifold and have it modified to allow for the injectors. Or 2: have a manifold custom built. Oh well, That part of the project is on the back burner for later. Thanks again everyone.
The first step is to get the motor mounts and clutch to do the engine swap. Step two will be selecting a forged crank, rods, and pistons.

Happy Friday! Thunder and lightning here right now, it rained pretty good last night but no rain at the moment. 84 and muggy! Nevada Dirt Track Championship this weekend at Rattlesnake Raceway if anyone's in the area.
Oh Jeff, one additional note on the intake manifold, besides all the other good information you've gotten, the Mr said those ports are for nitrous injection, just FYI.
