With your engine mods, I would suggest the air-gap...even more so if its gonna be a daily driver. You'll get better low end torque and overall better driveability, anything besides advantages I mentioned is not worth it for a true daily driver.
I don't know but i'm swapping from as stock 346250 Iron Q-jet intake to a Weiand Stealth. I have a 1" carb spacer/carb adapter under my Holley 600. Getting rid of the adapter alone will probably add some power, due to the better flow characteristics.
I will let you know how it goes!

"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic State itself. That, in its essence, is Fascism - ownership of government by an individual, by a group or by any controlling private power."
