something for the knowledgeable

I have a couple of things i want to extract from the ones who know the most....or anyone for that matter.
First, is a single plane manifold better than the tbi manifold? What about lower rpm driveability problems or off idle response? Second, will the Holley tbi bolt right up to the stock linkages and things on the manifold? I have been looking at this setup for awhile and want to know if anyone has any experience with this. Plus this would go great when i throw in the 350.

single plane is better. tbi doesnt have low rpm problems with a new chip.

some other stuff will need to be bought i beleive to make the holley bolt to your likages. the little nips on the linkage i think. But i dont know for sure.

Snuf, you ever see anyone try a Victor Jr. or Strip Dominator (same thing) with a small or big OEM TBI? Do the bores of the TBI intrude on the manny's square opening for the carb??? Small probably fits, eh?

I just think that a big single plane would look very nice and be tuneable w/Prom changes. NOt even worried about losing a little low-end and in fact, it may be helpful to me w/4.11's or 4.56's...

Bu-bye

Sweet.

My HOT cam is coming and Strip Dominator still protecting my floor from getting dirty. Gonna be fun!!! I just hope 9.0:1 CR is ok for the HOT cam. I don't think it is but gonna try it anyway. Rather have 9.5+.

the little one is 4 1/16 at its widest. so even it is wider than a square bore.

adapters take care of this completely.

i measured my torquer2 and its 3 11/16 square.

I think thats a standard isnt it. Are there bigger and smaller squarebores?????
I dont think so, somebody prove me wrong or right
