As you can see the air went into the throttle body and then into a large plenum.
The second plenum is where the Intake Runners feed the engine. It is a large plenum too.

The slot would be between the 1st plenum and the second plenum. It would be clocked to point about 5:00 and go into the second plenum, Air would go thru the slot, bank off the roof of the second plenum, then the air would continue on to the runners at a much lower velocity and higher density.

I lot of monkey motion trying th kill the air from all packing up at the rear of the first plenum.

Center feed, bank off the roof, seems to work the best and uses only one plenum.

Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
