What intake runners are preferred?

I currently have an LB9 and I'm planning on this setup:

-350 HO crate motor
-Vortec TPI manifold
-52mm throttle body
-SLP 1 3/4 headers
-Airfoil
-Some larger fuel injectors
-and either SLP siamesed runners or just oversized runners

I read somewhere that since my car is an auto, I'd be better off with the oversized runners. (do to the drop in torque that the siamesed runners would give me) Is this true? I really liked the look of the siamesed runners versus the sorta stock looking oversized ones.

Secondly, can anyone tell me what size injectors came on a stock 350? Would it be wise to just get that size injector, or go larger?

Last but not least, how much of a gain would a ported plenum give me?
