Single plane manifold on the street

rmchrgr said
I'm mulling over a street/strip combo and the prospects of a running a single-plane manifold. Now, I know a single-plane manifold is a 'race' part, but how many of you guys said screw it and run a single plane on your street car? Any drivability issues? Low end response OK?

I'm thinking of the Holley Strip Dominator in particular which, to my knowledge is a low-rise and relatively small-port design. Even though it's old, I'm kind of drawn to this manifold, everything I've read about it says they're very good.

Thanks,

Greg

Without knowing what you've done to the 318, it's hard to say which manifold will work best. If your compression is at or below 10.5 and your cam isn't a all out race cam, the Performer RPM Air Gap is the way to go. You will be hard pressed to beat it.
