Default Intake Manifold Deciscion

i was looking around for intake manifolds for my '78 vette 350S/B. Edelbrock seemed to have some decient ones but then i started looking for a multi carb manifold and i can only find one on jegs.com? am i just lookin in the wrong place? Should i even consider a multi carb manifold?

Edelbrock makes one for the small block: C-26 Dual-Quad.
From what I read on the forum more power can be achieved with a single carb, plus life is easier only having to adjust one carb. That said, I'm placing a C-66 dq and two 600 performers on my '69 bigblock.

Be careful with what intake you choose, or you will be changing your hood..........

I've got a 79 with a Elderbroch EPS intake and Holley Street Avenger carb. On top is a 3" air cleaner on a drop base. Absolutely 0" clearnance.
