Single plane would have one large plenum that the carb mounted on & the runners would look like a big X, when viewed from above. You could look down all 8 intake runners.

I have that manifold. It's an LT-1/Z28 manifold. Mine is modified to take a Quadrajet, and port matched to the Felpro 1506, just like my Airflow Research 195s. Works great. I take my engine to 6500 rpm all the time. I would like to try the Performer RPM, but the don't make it for my Quadrajet.

Well I had hoped to pick the pictured intake up on ebay but the price is already up to $300.00 with a lot of time to go. More than I was looking to spend on an intake at this time. Guess I will keep looking.
Thanks guys for all the help! Now I know what to look for.

If the green conv. in your pic. is your car the 2101 Performer will fit much better or maybe the Edelbrock EPS. You need about 3/4" clearance over the Holley vent tubes.
