Looking for BBC intake suggestions

I'm trying to figure out what would be the best intake to use with my combo.It's not a Super Stock, but I thought you guys would have some good ideas. Engine is a 12 to 1 461 w/ open chamber rect. port GM cylinder heads.Heads have been professionally ported, but no welding or filling was done (class I ran at the time did not allow it). cam is 269/276 @.050, lift.685/692 solid roller. carb is 850 holley DP w/proform 1050 main body 4150 type.Current intake is holley strip dominator, headers are 2" hooker super comp hooked to 3.5" exhaust with dynomax ultra flo mufflers. 3500# w/driver 5200 stall converter,4.57 gear, 28" tire. I run in a heads up street car class which limits us to a 275-60-15 hard street (400 + treadwear rating - think BFG Radial T/A) so good trap speed is more important than hard launch. Car has run a best of 7.07 @99.6 eight mi.on hard tires w a 1.65 60' so far, but i could use a couple more mph on top end.Please help me stay ahead of the nitrous cars with my all motor 4 door wagon. All Ideas welcome!
