I used WEIAND #8024 low-rise dualplane intake which works Idle-6000rpm on my old 355 setup (i had FI heads) This intake says "for cast iron heads" so i am not sure if it will work on your L98 Aluminum heads. Call up Holley & find out (Weiand is made by Holley)

Worked great....motor drove my 3900lbs 2nd gen w/ 4:10 & stock th-350, Comp280H to 14.0@99mph on radials.

Anyhow.....thats the part number u need, and you can find it at Summit/Jegs.

Stroked, not sure where you got the "L98 Aluminum heads" part, but I agree that's the correct manifold.

Spice, go to www.summitracing.com, enter "wnd-8024" in the "Enter your Summit part number" box on the left side, it'll come up.

Only the Vette L98's got aluminum heads.

To boot, the TBI engines are LO3's, and have terrible heads for performance. But, you can still work with them up to a point.

I have an edelbrock proformer manifold, with the centerbolt style. I paid $289 for it but I'll give it to you for $150. It has less than 4,000 miles on it. If interested email me at joemo22@yahoo.com
