Not sure what you're talking about here, but if you want to make the most power from 1500 to 6500 with a BBC, then use either of these intake manifolds....

If it is unacceptable that neither of these manifolds make power from idle to 1500 (no matter what the blurb says concerning the Stealth), then use a looser torque converter to get the motor up to 1500+ before it begins to pull hard.
If you need to make power above 6500, for instance with a circle track motor, then you should consider a single plane manifold such as the Edelbrock Victor series.
