You are ASSuming it needs to be changed. This is not a gen 1 or LS motor where an intake is a basic simple proven upgrade. The LT1 intake just works fairly well for a large range of applications.
If you want to get wild there can be some benifit to a single plane intake IF well choosen, but for a simple cheap basic upgrade the stocker leaves little room to improve on.

the stealth ram is another option but requires some pretty drastic work to fit into the car, let alone keep your windshield wipers. but it does pick up some torque in the midrange.

I don't really like the LTX intakes, but it is what most people run. I have a finished intake that I plan on testing that should be better than the stock ported LT1/4 intake.

Judging by the mods in your sig, you will definately be fine with a stock intake. You can get it ported if you'd like, but really, it's fine the way it is. Like others said, the LT1 doesn't require an aftermarket intake manifold as an upgrade for more power at such an early stage, as do other engines. The LT1 intake is pretty free-flowing and can support a good amount of power in it's stock form

Either the results would have to be significant, the cost cheap, or the fitment and required modification very minimal for it to be considered as a viable option...seeing as how the LT1 intake performs very well as is. And if a big SR, heads, stroker motor is in the plans, why not go with w single plane and 4-hole tb?
