I have a edelbrock part# 29785 and athe fuel rail kit, witha wilson intake elbow with the chevy TB bolt pattern any suggestions for a TB part #s would be cool and will a ls1 TB work how about the tps and iac sensor? I have a 95 z28 with a obd1 computer that I know will have to be tuned. Any help would be apperciated!

I get the feeling he's talking about a monoblade instead of the twin butterfly blades the LT throttlebodies come with. Could be wrong though.

A single plane intake uses just one chamber to feed all eight cylinders, while a dual plane splits the plenum into 2 chambers of four intake runners. Dual plane intakes are more responsive in the lower RPMs where they make the most benefit, while single plane intakes are for high RPM, high HP applications as they don't make as much power down low.

Do a search for quik95LT1 - he's got a pretty impressive single plane build.

I just got done with my own custom single plane build, built the elbow, since I don't like any of the ones on the market. Powdercoating looks sweet, too bad no one does that though?
