Single Plane vs. Dual Plane manifold

What is the biggest difference in this topic? Is it that the single plane is for more of a racing application and top end horsepower and the dual plane is for idle to top end or what?

That's how I would have described it.

kind of simplistic...

I don't know many tractors operators even that expect power from idle at WFO..but..

Lets just try something like full throttle operation with max torque over 4500rpm for SP and below 4500 for DP. Very seldom will the results be something other than that...
