read up on the offset question. i think my offset(Howell) is about 1/4 inch. some have no offset (turbo city?). i believe no offset is good for WOT and any offset is helpful for partial throttle where you are 99% of time.

This is true with a thin plate, but I believe you can have the best of both worlds with a thick plate that is centered. That was no matter where the blades are pointing the air is directed straight down by the walls of the bores. Or you could just add a thick spacer.

good point. my weiand accel single plane is very low profile so the butters will direct the charge somewhat. i am adding a spacer to get the TB further up for more ram effect. by losing the xramand current CF air cleaner i am gaining about one 3/4 to one inch clearance. in looking at that list of intakes posted a bit back that edelbrock single plane torker may have been possible as well as the holley dedicated TBI as far as clearance and potentially better fuel distribution with my 454 TB.
