what do you feel is the best oval port intake

[grumpyvette]

theres quite a few experienced big block chevy engine enthusiasts on this, site so I thought it might be a good place to ask," what do you feel is the best single or dual carb, oval port intake manifold available for under $500 (intake manifold alone) for use on a car with a 454-496 big block with oval port heads , and a common drive train with rear gears in the mid 3.36:1-3.73:1 range on a car like many of you drive that will be used about 90% of the time on the street?
what carb(s) would you suggest?
now Ive built several dozen big block engines over the years that match those limitations and I have a good idea as to what Ive found works, but I,m rather interested in what many of you gentlemen think on the subject, so please post your thoughts or concerns on the subject

we used a torkerII on the 496 in the camaro bcause we scored the motor complete and it came with that intake, however i am firmly in the school of thought that on the street and driving around, a dual plane intake is where its at. on small blocks, edelbrocks rpm air gap is second only to the air flow research composite intake, for the same reasons, being able to seperate the intake air charge from the residual heat of the motor. two ways to solve the same problem but any big block intake manifold that follows this strategy is sure going to be fun to drive around and have plenty of part throttle passing torque for highway and street use.
