I would go with a basic dual plane intake. Unless your compression is going to be high and your going to on the ragged edge of detonation, you might want to give a dual plane Air Gap style manifold a try to keep you intake charge cooler.

I agree with Dan on the headers and exhaust. Ceramic is worth it and dont go big on the pipe diameter. 2 1/2" is all you need.
