Advise on runners

Looking into getting a new set of aftermarker runners. Whats out there that can flow good with a 400/406. It will be portmatched with the plenum and a aftermarket base. Sheer street machine looking for MONSTER torque.

the problem with TPI is the runner length for large displacement
engines gets torque but supply is limited. now it becomes a restriction.
some peeps have installed the miniram and have recorded minimal
loss on torque and gains through the mid and uppers.
the super ram is for the large displacement engines.
tunnel ram intakes are associated for WOT and usually torque
figures arent the best.
between the miniram and super ram would be your best bet.
as far as runners siamesed runners with some massive work
to make the flow work properly.
as stated...
TPI works best for 305cid, the 350 has a slight breathing problem,
larger displacements should concider alternatives due to
restictions in system and rpms.

Holy Fudge that Steath ram thing is pretty cheap actually. Ive seen runners alone cost more then that. I know what will be on my christmas list his year. Would i be able to get close to say 450 ft/lbs of torque out that thing and a 406? cause thats what im after.
