I know a six-pack will work but I have to go with single 4 and also what size holley carb? Thanks for the help

I run the Street Dominator on the .030 over 440 in my 63 street /strip car. I run 10.0 comp and 906 heads with the MP .557 cam and the SD with an 850 DP. At just over 3700 lbs it has run a best of 11.49 @ 116 and thats driving to the track and racing the same as I drive it thru the pipes. I like the SD alot as my car 60 ft's ok for what it is with stock suspension and just SS springs as my best 60 ft is a 1.57 which I guess is on par for a mid 11 car. The Eddy RPM also works very good on my sons 400 Dart that runs Eddy RPM heads and the MP .557 cam and he has run 11.40's also. I have not ran the M1 myself but my brother has and many people I know and they have all ran good #'s with it for the combo's. Ron Last edited by 383man; 01/12/10 01:39 AM.

I run an rpm, and like it. for that matter, I only needed a drop base air cleaner to make it work when I ran the flat hood. The original poster has more cam and gear though, so I think a single plane MAY be a better pick. Copuld go either way As for a holley, 950hp holley would be about right.

I have a #7512 X-Celerator on mine At this point it's starting to hold me back and needs some more massaging or a new Victor

This intake is capable of making 750-800hp...The RPM would be my last choice cause of design, even though it my perform just as good now.

IIRC, Dulcich said that particular intake had some very minor blending done in the plenum. The Team G had a core shift problem, which i have heard is not uncommon with that intake.

And the Torquer II had more hood clearance if I remember correctly. Last edited by Quicksilver440; 01/12/10 10:36 PM.

The Torker 11 was the worst on torque and HP from 2500(where we begin) to 6500 where we stop the tests. The motor make peak HP at or close to 5800 to 5900 RPMs and peak torque from 4100 to 4300 RPMs. We where printing and storing data every one hundred RPM I have a freind who tested a TM7 intake on his 440 bracket car with a 750 Holley DP versus a Torker and Torker 11 intake with no other changes, the TM7 was the fastest and quickest Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964.
