Default Mass air/Lid combo

Alright need a little input folks.... I am currently building a 418 which is 4.100 stroke with a 6.125 rod, with a set of dart 225's and a custom grind cam 236/244 @ .50 with 624/590 on a 114.... I am working with a company that is designing a manifold for the ls motors that flows phenominal which actually with one of there runners on the head my head flow numbers picked up by 15 cfm which is damn hard to do, a fast runner actually dropped my intake flow numbers... my question is what size mass air meter do you all think i should run?? The new tsp 100 mm mass air, if so, what lid i havent seen any that people have into production yet???? Some good info would help!!!

if you're going 100mm get the Lingenfelter they seem really good quality and get the biggest lid on the market as far as I know FastToys 85mm although you'll have to get an adapter for that massairflow... personally I think an 85 mm maf will work fine but thats just my .02

I was thinking the 85 prolly because i wanna keep it still streetable and not so much torque loss, the manifold is gonna be around 92 mm by the time its done but the unique runner design is still leaving the torque there so i didnt want to do the 100mm and lose alot of low end torque...
