Nobody is going to just pop in and tell you in this thread how to build a 350 GM motor. You can search or read post, check peoples sigs out and what combos there running. It seems every month or so theres a post asking how to get HP out of some particular combo. If your serious do some research, buy a book. This board can answer any specific questions but these broad general questions really require some work on your part.
To answer your question using a Long Tube Runner (TPI) style intake setup is great for building torque not HP. Some of the best NA setups on these boards are getting a little over 300HP and 400TQ at the wheels.
You want more you need a superram, mini-ram, stealth ram, carb or whatever not a LTR.

thanx for the input... i have been doing some pretty extensive research i was just wondering wat kindof numbers i could expect but i guess i worded my question a little weird... but i want to use TPI cause its pretty cheap to come across and better fuel mileage than my stock TBI
