Me....and my little opinion, if your not going to tune it to the Nth degree, a 4150 is a better option....I can honestly say, I have never run a Dominator with a dual plane which adds to the difficulty of tuning...What is your gearing and convertor stall? Stall being the more important of the two...

4200 per Lenny at ultimate. 4.10 gear, 28” tire in b body. It’s fresh so haven’t driven the car yet, just trying to figure out my best option. Thanks👍🏻

I would call Dominic of Thumper Carbs and get his opinion. He builds great carbs for us Mopar people. I have two of them so far....The dual plan may or may not work and I was actually looking at the Vanke intake Indy offers for my Hemi for hood clearance. I would mill the whole divider out though.....

I ran both Indy intakes (open and dual plane) on the dyno when I broke in my 540 Hemi. Based on my wedge experience, the only reason that I tried the dual plane was because Indy said it would be the best choice on the street. They were right, the dual plane picked up a ton of torque across the band and only gave up 11hp up top. I was shocked!
When I have ran dual planes on my 440+ inch wedges, they were done by 5,000rpm, leaving a bunch of power on the table. The only exception being the 6bbl intake.
And my 1050 Dominator that Dominic did the metering blocks on runs and drives at least as good as any 4150 I have ever ran. It's all in the tune, not whether it is a 4150 or a 4500. Properly size the carb for the engine and get a good tune in it. And Dom is the man for the tune.
Master, again and still

If you have the Dominator it can certainly be made to run fine, If you have to buy from scratch I would invest in a quality 4150 instead. A larger 4150 with large annulars would be my suggestion, especially with a dual plane. You might see up to a tenth at the track, maybe nothing.

Not really, it’s just what I have right now for intakes, the rpm and the victor. Six pack hood on car but I plan on running a dominator If you want to run a Dominator carb then sell the two intakes you have and buy an intake that is designed for a Dominator.
