Default Swap my Dual Plane for a Single Plane

My current setup is an 03' LQ4
-243 heads
-Edelbrock 2216 cam http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-2216/
-Edelbrock Performer RPM dual plane
-NOS Cheater kit
-Holley 850HP 4150 carb
-3200 stall verter with a 200-4r tranny

I was offered an even trade, my dual plane for a single plane (Victor Jr.).
Would this go well with my setup or no?

I would do it, the top end gained is better off than the low end lost with a 3200 converter and the nitrous will respond better with a single plane.

depends on intended use of vehicle. if its just a drag car then yes vic jr. but for a street car the performer rpm will give u alot more usable power i wish i would of put one on my car instead of the vic jr. i ran it a couple of times at the strip, but for autocrossing and street driving i would rather have more bottom end up to 4k power. i wish i could find some one to trade w/me

Define bottom end when he has a 3200 converter. I think he would be fine with a Victor Jr. Eric L

I picked up the convertor for a good deal so it is not the most ideal stall. In retrospect I would prefer a smaller stall. I am up in the air, but if it goes through in the next few weeks I may have a single plane. The car is primarily street use with some straight line.

I would say use the Victor Jr. with the 2216 cam, your set up and intended use. If you would have chosen the 2215 cam maybe the RPM but not with your set up.
