Wilson Manifolds makes a very nice CNC billet adaptor to bolt your LT1 TB on an Edelbrock elbow, Wilson elbow, etc.
Good friend of mine band sawed the flange off the front of an old stock intake, and TIG welded it to the front of an Edelbrock elbow. My hood would not shut on the Wilson elbow.

My 350" SS engine has a Hogan sheet metal intake. I've seen some pretty fast LT1 SS cars with single plane intakes, so I tried one. By the time I got threaded inserts in my heads, spot faced & corrected the 2nd from the end bolt holes in the manifold, then sent it off for porting, welding, etc, I spent enough to have another Hogan build. Then it made less power on the engine dyno & ran slower on the track. Got lucky and sold that thing for 50 cents on the dollar I had in it.
If I were you, and you actually want to make power, I would call Hogan Manifolds.

So I'm really looking at ported LT4 vs single plane for the Comp ported AFR 210's?

The air/fuel is skewed enough to easily make that much difference.
After the welding, and port work, Wilson's high dollar CNC LTX TB adapter, freight, etc, I had about the same money as in the Hogan. Only place the single plane was up compared to my Hogan was 5 ft lbs below 5200 RPM.
