I was able to take the Accel 90 deg elbow, and take a pie cut out of it tilting it down to fit.

How tall is your accel single plane. I think my vic jr is about the shortest single plane out there, not the best for performance, but better for low clearance. I had planned on building an elbow that will allow me to use a 4 barrel tb, but it looks like I will have to do a 90º elbow and a 90mm tb.
