Performer is probably your only choice if you dont wanna run a 4150-q-jet adapter. I have a performer on my 79 Wagon and it goes 6800 every chance i give it.

I put this engine in a 68 chevelle with a RPM Airgap and the adapter for a Q-jet but had to run a 2 inch air cleaner and a Moroso drop base.It fit under the hood however I was told a 66 has a lower hood line.I was looking at the Performer RPM Q-Jet to get away with no (.750) spacerThanks Tony.
