Need intake advice

Hello I have and LS dropout from a 1999 firebird here is a VIN from this Trans Am: 2G2FV22G0X2229700

I pretty much got everything purchased for the swap (I am swapping it in to a 92 camaro)

And now I need an intake - the problem is I dont know what would be a better fit for this engine - the throttle body (I measured) is 100mm.

Which intake setup would work for me?
I found a couple that I think should fit
Number 1
or
number 2

maybe there are other options?

like a couple of silicone elbows + a pipe and a filter? What diameter then and what kind of filter?

Looking for a best choice.

Thanks!

If this is a dropout stock engine,,, the throttle body should measure out at around 78mm not 100.
