The fact you did not specify is YOUR desire:

(1) eye candy (tripower or dual AFB's)
(2) street performance with a basically stock engine (single AFB, dual AFB, Q-Jet)
(3) win the bench "my engine makes more HP than your engine" race (dual AFB, Holley, Q-Jet)

Footnote: All AFB references above are to genuine Carter AFB's.

Once you have answered the above question to YOUR satisfaction, the choice of an intake manifold becomes fairly obvious.
