I would probably go a different route with it. Accoring to Holley, the Q-jet version of the sniper is good for 500hp which would be maxed out on your motor. However, the standard sniper 4150 is good for 650hp and the flange is dual drilled to work on spreadbore manifolds. I would probably use the 4150 then just port whatever spreadbore manifold I am using to fit the larger sniper 4150 primary throttle plates. The only only dpwnside I can see is with factory air cleaner clearance but that can be addressed as well. On the upside, you have plenty of capacity to deal with any changes you may make in the future.
