hmm "Quite the conundrum" perhaps the need for a Dominator is sort of a by-product

Response to It is an intake test

of "Racing a Dyno" and the rather high RPM capabilities of your engine x Displacement induced requirements of your engine combo = It needs a bunch of Flow. Fact of Life Dominators are what you see on the Drag Strip on similary endowed race engines. Unfortunately resorting to three-barrels and Dominators in a land of 4150 Carbs on street/track cars kind of hurts the reality issue for the typical guy.

When max power is desired I hate to think that shear CFM wins but unfortunately (especially with respect to your testing manifolds) It looks like in this instance Size Matters. I think I just restated your problem but JMHO don't go with a carb with three holes if you ask me.

Don"t ever forget Ford used two (2) Dominators on 302 Trans Am Mustangs for some reason until they were outlawed
