you need to tighten the LSA up. I like the truck manifold idea, for sure you going to have to trim the back cowl. The LT2 or similar would be nice, don't know about hood clearance on that one... Somebody may need to design a big barrel like the old LSX intake..

That said this was a great article:

I'm going to be realistic, if you want torque and save some cash, I'd just go with the Pray ported IM and TB and a 112 LSA cam...

I went with a Cam Motion because I could get more lift (.596), they are know for gentle ramps, I could get their 33% fuel lobe. I also like the fact that they have different recommended grinds for centri vs roots. I have a centri grind which sits between NA and a roots in terms of overlap and exhaust duration.
See I too thought it was a 116 but I think it has been revised. The part number you listed back in 2016 no longer exists.
