You shouldn't need an aftermarket intake elbow for a 58mm tb. Only different thing you should need is a gasket.

It's better to just get an Aluminum one anyways, to help flow. The stock ones usually are kinda bad where they meet up. Both my TPI and LT1s were bad due to the rubber folding under on the bottom when I put it on.
