Intake for torque...
What are my options for a low RPM (under 6500) torque producing intake manifold? This will be on a 416" L-92 block with Patriot stage III cathedral-port heads and 11.4 static CR that will not see 6500 and likely a 6000 limit. Cam is 233°/245° on a 110 LSA, headers with the usual mods. Would like to stay injected (Holley HP EFI) but could use 4 bbl throttle body if hood clearance permits...

Truck intake likely makes the most torque but may be a huge choke point in the upper rpms. I'm not that familiar with them though. What's the goal of the car? I mean 6500 is very very conservative for these engines, and a FAST intake pulls to around there or a little higher.

Have you considered a Edelbrock Performer RPM (dual plane) manifold, it'll offer better torque(an HP) below 4k then a FAST intake manifold.
The down side is that it loses power above 4k to the FAST intake.
