T/B adapter plate?

New to this site but been with the LS1 TECH site for a while now with my built 2000 SS CAMARO, now I'm rebuilding my 1992 RS Camaro. I've built a 355 with mild cam to replace the 305, now for the T/B up grade's I'd like to go with the Edelbrock performer intake and a up graded T/B but I can't seem to find the manifold T/B plate on Turbocity's site https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=262641
I've used the search but can't seem to find it so any help or suggestions on my build would be great,
Thanks!

as a suggestion i might throw out that you should think of a different intake than a plain old performer. Thats just my opinion though. There performence is sorta lacking compared to most of the aftermarket manifolds.

Then again if you got a different 1 you'd need a carb to tb adapter so thats up to you.

I have tried several different intakes myself and the single plane intakes run very well with stock or mild mods...Good throttle response ...just my thought

Thanks for the input's and from what I was reading when I did a search I was under the impression the dual plain intake was the way to go for a injected T/B setup so the single plain Performer RPM would be a good choice with a high flow T/B.
Thank's!

much better choice in my opinion.

Btw i didn't mean go dual plane i could realy care less if it's single or dual (i like dual myself but,) the flow quality of that particular 1 has trouble keeping up with most of the aftermarket (slow performer if you will).

One thing is that it's hard to find a performer rpm manifold single or dual plain that has the spreadbore pattern for 1987 or later heads with egr that will fit under the stock hood of the 25th ann. rag top rs.

If you intend on a larger than stock TBI unit you will have to bore the edelbrock TBI intake holes to 2". This cam be done but it may be easier and behoove you to just go with a single plain intake and adapter plate as you have been inquiring.
