The current MPI version of the M1 intake is a single-plane intake. But
there is a dual-plane M1 available. The part number is P5249500. You would
need to buzz the bosses on the runners just like the single-plane version,
but this would give you a like dual-plane.

 Don't know what my torque curve looks like (no chasis dynos in S. Ont.

The MPI intake is a single plane. I think you mentioned that you're running
a
different camshaft, so you'd probably benefit from the swap yourself.

You also have an automatic transmission, did the cam hurt your low end at
all? Mine did (mine was probably a little more aggressive... .512"/.512" -
210/220) and a 2400 stall is all it took to take care of that problem.
