So I call a well known carb guy here in Calif. to see what he want to "modify" my 1050 dommy and he says it`s a waste of money because I run an adapter What`s up with that? And this guy`s no joke and his carbs are on some of the fastest p.s.c.a. cars and some wicked fast low 8-sec street cars...........wadda you guys think?

Interesting Probably as many here including myself are running the 4150 base to Dom adapter. Looking to update my X-Cellerator in liew of something more modern , probably a Victor. I'm torn between the 2 styles now I'll be this out and see where it leads.

On every vehicle I have EVER tested it on I made more power and went faster with a dedicated Dominator intake than with an adapted one. I know many out there say different but IMO it has always been the case.

Several years ago I used an M1 low deck 4150 intake with an adapter and an old used 1050 and went 9.96 with a 590 cammed 451 and Eddy heads. I didn't try a 4500 intake but back then the guys that tested this were running best with the adapter and 4150 intake. Every combo is different though.
