Default intake idea for my 5.3

what if you made 2 sheet metal intakes one per side of the engine ?
something like the banks big hoss for diesels and used dual 78mm TB's?




would it give you better control over the plenum area?

i was thinking about doing a intake like this over a singe 4" square plenum and one 78mm TB would it be better? (4" square plenum setup below)

4" square plenum
4" long runners
injector bungs placed .5" away from the plenum and 1" away (16 42# injectors for boosted 5.3 on e85)
the top would be made with a rail so i could put a removable top on it


or do dual 3" aluminum tubes with 3" runners and dual 78mm TB's

what would make more power?
