The best (and lowest) manifold for the 460 is the Edelbrock Torker II.

The Torker II is 3.5"/4.25" tall at the carb pad, while the Performer is 4.35"/5.5", meaning the Torker is about an inch shorter vertically. Any other Performer (RPM) or competitive manifold will be even taller, requiring a taller scoop.

Check your manifold's maker's web site for the gory details.

The Torker is a good all-round manifold for street or racing for the 385 series Ford.
