TPI equipped 350 HO????

I'm gonna be buying the GM Performance (Base) 350 HO from Jegs for $2099 I've heard that you supposed to have a vortec intake because of the vortec heads..... why can't ya just have the Stock TPI intake??? I don't wanna switch to carb because carb sucks ya have to tune it constantly.

There should be some info on a lower intake (base plate? I think) that will match the heads up.
