Re: ??? regarding 1050 holley dominator carbs
Given what it takes to convert a gas carb to alcohol, it's a lot more than jets, and I'm not sure you can reverse the process, I've never tried. There are all sorts of restrictions you drill out to go to alcohol, you'd have to close them back up. It'd take a 1/2 hour or more to detail it here.

They are two different beasts: for starters, metering blocks are different and need to be changed. Inlet valves and bowl are different. Bleed orifices are also different.

I have a 1050 Pro System Alochol Dominator I'll sell you. It has about 70 pass, most of which were 1/8 mile. Looks and works like new. New ones go for $1,100.00 let this one go for $750.00
