I had the same setup and my 1050 was just fine... I had 11 to 1 though... street/strip car and 4.10's

i've been trying to work out what size dommy i need on my junk but every manufacturer has a different idea & every calc for working it out gives me a different answer. was thinking of buying a king demon with the removable sleeves so if i get it wrong i can change relatively cheap.

We ran a air volume sensor to determine volumetric effeicncy on the 572 C.I. motor Rodney is testing on the dyno now, it has a custom built 1150 Dominator on it and the sensor says the motor is using around 1030 to 1040 CFM at and above 5000 RPM to 7000 RPM

I used a Holley 9375 HP(nothing bigger) on a motor very much likes yours with ported 346 heads and it ran faster with every bigger carb. I tried on it

A good 1050 will work very well, IMO
