You meant Sour orange as base, then flying dragon as interstem, then whatevery cultivar on flying dragon?

Most likely it will be a compromise. The root system of the base stock has a big influence on the quality of the fruit juices on the final scionwood. The interstem should have to be at least 12" to have a "compromise" or in between effect. You will not achieve the same quality as when FD is the base stock, but it could help.
