Best eeeeeeziest cheeeeepest intake that will make a HUGE difference, is a stock 396 intake; or equiv, like Edelbrock Performer.
Notice how on the intake you have, the carb flange is BELOW the valve cover flange.
Which means, the air flows DOWN through the carb, does a 180°, flows UP, then turns back DOWN again 180° to get into the head ports. 2 COMPLETE 180° turns. This can't be good.
All you need is an intake that's not upside-down.
NOT a Vic Jr. That would be a total mismatch in every way from every angle at every scale to the motor you're putting it on. FRACTALLY WRONG.

Get up under the car and LOOK at the trans so you know what it is. Not that it's particularly important to the intake question; but, sooner or later you're going to HAVE TO know FOR SURE what it is.
