This what you were thinking of?
I built it in the early 90's. It's a Weiand under all that stuff. I unbolted the original plenum and bolted a welded up aluminum box in it's place. I welded on the injector mounts that had been milled out of an aluminum extrusion/bar stock. I used a DFI aftermarket throttle body. Today I'd probably use the SVO-Cobra throttle body and "hard coupled" fuel rails. I also added a "pop-off" in case it back-fired I didn't want to turn the box/plenum inside out. The plenum probably should be a bit bigger (more volume) but this one fits under the engine cover and still gives good access to the injectors.
The distributor is a very tight fit. I ended up using the "small" distributor as there just wasn't any way to get the large cap in there using the Weiand manifold, even before I put the box plenum on it. I need to convert to a distributorless system.
Let me know if you want more. I don't have a good digital photo of the manifold before I installed it but might be able to scan one.
Interestingly the EEC-IV system I use allows me to monitor the intake air temperature. My temperatures at full boost were lower than other normally aspirated engines using the OEM-Windsor EFI manifold.

A short time ago someone on the this list forward me a couple of picture of his Weiand intake with a multi-port set up. I seem to have misplaced the file and was wondering if you could forward the pics to me again.
Thanks
Paul
