Intake Manifold Recommendations
I am rookie to the site so I am apologizing in advance if I am doing this wrong or in the wrong area.
I have a 70 small block car that I am assembling a nice stroker motor for, it has the factory LT-1/Big Block hood. My question is what manifold can I run under the factory hood? I like the Performer RPM Air Gap will it fit? If not does anybody have a recommendation that would work well on a stroker motor?

I have not nailed down the cam yet, my intake choice is going to effect which cam (RPM range) I can go with. If the RPM Air Gap fits, I might go with Edelbrock's matching cam that they offer in roller version. I had great luck with that cam in my 350 Camaro.
