I actually feel that they’re easier to dial in for street duty when the cam is on the big side(lower engine vacuum), since that’s what the low speed circuits are designed to be used with.

I have ran Dominators on my mostly street cars for over 15 years. No difference in driving quality vs a 4150 when set up right. And Thumper is the man to do that. If your combo needs/wants that much carb, there is no reason not to.

I'd never recommend a 3 circuit for the street. You can kill an engine on a short freeway drive with a 3 circuit. Driving at part throttle with the manifold vacuum under the throttle blade sucking fuel right out of the intermediate dump tubes will wash the cylinders and stick the rings. I've seen customers over the years destroy expensive engines doing that. That is why I lean down the transition and idle circuits to prevent them being way to rich at light part throttle cruise on the street Dominic, Thumper Dart,760-900-3895, can fix them up for anyone wanting to drive a 3 circuit on the street

FWIW...My Pro Systems 1200 cfm dominator is a 3 circuit carb. Granted it's obviously been modified, but the 3 circuit carbs can be made to work. As delivered from Holley, the 3 circuit carbs are pig fat and run like crap at part throttle.

Absolutely! Call Dom at Thumpercarbs. Can find him on Facebook. He builds them weekly and is the best in the business in my opinion. I have one of his and it's the best carb I have ever owned. Ditto

Dominic, Thumper Dart,760-900-3895, can fix them up for anyone wanting to drive a 3 circuit on the street Yeah, but they're not 3-circuits any longer once he's gone through 'em. Anyone have experience w/ the HP-style 8082 1050? I'd heard that's more like the old-style 9375, in that it's a 2-circuit intended for a single 4-bbl application. It's not one of the fancy "new gen" billet series, though.
