One reason why I went with the Dominator Victor manifold is that everyone that I talk to is out of stock of the regular ones....and won't have them for another 2 months or so. I can't wait that long on an intake. For one, I need to get this engine assembled....and two, I have to have the intake to see where the engine's gonna sit in the engine bay.....so if I have to "tweak" the angle, shorten the engine mounts, or use a drop base air cleaner, I'll be able to tell that right off.

Keith Craft had some Dominator style manifolds in stock....so I figured I had nothing to lose.

I have a Holley 4150 850 DP at home....I can slap an adapter on the intake and run this one if I choose....or I can find a good Dominator style carb and slap it on as well.

I wasn't looking at the 1050 or 1150 carbs of course....but Demon and Holley both have Dominator style carbs in the 750-950 range....and if I need to buy another carb to suit my engine's needs, then I can be looking for one.
