intake manifold & boost?

Since I'm going to be getting rid of the quadrajet for a holley square-bore carb, I either need to buy a carb adapter for the stock intake manifold or replace the intake entirely.

I've read that a single-plane style is best for boost, but then nobody seems to like the edelbrock torker II intake. The other option is the edelbrock performer intake which is dual-plane. Or should I just stick with the stock intake and spend less money on the adapter?

I guess I was hoping to get some more input since there isn't really any info in the archives. I think the victor series cost too much and is not in my RPM range.

I don't think the torker II will be a problem since you are running boost. The Team G may be even better. Both are cheap.
