That said, there's nothing wrong with a well-tuned vacuum secondary carb for anything short of full-race use.
Vacuum secondary carbs never worked for me,could never get them to hit like a dbl pmp.Both my big block cars have the HP Holley 850 dbl pmp.Thinking about sending one out to Dan Davinci for his magic touch.
