The one RBS sells is the standard fare BDS intake. Short is good because anytime you can lessen the distance from the crank AND keep the pulley as close to the block as possible (laterally speaking), the less stress induced on the crank snout.

If distributor/magneto clearance is an issue, Mike Dunn in Texas can make you an offset drive for a Pontiac (had him make me one years ago, to clear a 14-71 on this very intake). My intake is also drilled/tapped for port nozzles.

I set up my vintage Thompson blower intake to run port nozzles and was happy with the tuning advantages of doing so. Later, I moved my port nozzles to my heads on the intake ports and that worked even better. So, you can run your port nozzles in your head- top of your intake ports as I have. That may help you.
