What"s the best intake manifold for my SBC 18 degree engine combination

[FastBuick]

Hi,
I have a question regarding what would be the best intake manifold for my combination in order to maximize it. I'm looking to go faster and I think that the intake manifold that I have on now may be a little small. My combination is:
399.9 cubic inch SBC (4.190x3.625)
BMF 18 degree heads 268cc intake runner 2.180 titanium intake valve 1.600 titanium exhaust valve
GM 10185053 intake manifold with 4150 top port matched to heads
Pro Systems 1100 dominator
HVH 4500 to 4150 super sucker 2" adapter
3100 pound car with a powerglide and 5.83 rear gear
Shift at 9000 RPM go through traps at 9000-9200 RPM
7000 flash stall 8" torque converter

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you

If it's a standard deck? I have a Hogans sheet metal for 18deg. heads with single Dominator top that will work very well in your RPM range.

I run real close to your combo....3.185 x 3.625 but with RFD 15* heads. I originally sent Curtis my GM Wilson spider....Wilson loked it over and said it was way too small and wanted $800 t bring it up to speed. Curtis set me up with a new Victor Glidden Edlebrock spider with a domintor flange. We made 843 at 8200 with this set-up...

Do you still have this? Would be real interested if it has the proper runners for my deal?

The block started as a standard deck (9.000") but is now down to 8.974". How much are you asking for that intake?

Did you have to do any porting to the Edelbrock Victor Glidden spider or did you just port match it and put it on?

Curtis port matched the runners and did his thing to the plenum entry area.

Ok cool. It sounds like nothing seriously major had to be done to that intake in order to make good power.
