Default arrow help ke/fps

Hey guys im thinking about switching from my terminator hunters to gold tips and was wondering about speed and ke.

Here is my setup:
Pse Firestorm Lite
29" draw @60 lbs. maxed out
Loop with nock next to it
leeches
peep with rubber tube
doinker

Ok im currently shooting 220 fps with my terminator hunters which weigh in at about 451 gr. with head, and with eastons calculator it said it puts out 48.48 lbs of ke.

I would like to switch to gold tips and it says that they will weigh in about about 393 gr. with tip.

So my question is will i get the 16 fps with the lighter arrow to keep the ke at 48 lbs. ?

I am also planning on switching to a tubless peep, pulling the brass nock off, and removing the leeches so the only things i have on the string are loop and tubless peep. (if you read my other post about the leeches you know why i want to take them off.)

I am planning on redoing my setup for next season, I would like to do all of the above and change to a trophy ridge v-drive pendulum and drop zone rest.


thanks

Vince
