My way of thinking was the Holley would be easier to set up than my Quadrajet for forced induction. If I were going to replace the intake manifold I would probably lean toward the Holley Street Dominator single plane. Then I could use a square carb. I just really want to keep it stock appearing. I would like to see between six to seven hundred horsepower under full load and still have great drivability just cruising.
I have a spread bore holley. Ill have to look at it and see how( if any) different it is then the square bore in terms of how to make it boost ready. Ive never even really looked close at it.

Changing the manifold and painting it would be a good way to go like Tom said too..

I like your idea, i hope you go forward with it and share the build here so everyone can follow ...

Good luck ...
