Three two barrel holleys are fun. The middle one is mechanical, the other two are vacuum driven. If you can feel the other barrels (or carbs) coming in, what you are feeling is the motor recovering from the bog it was in due to overcarburation. It is finally pulling enough air to get the velocity through the venturis high enough to work properly.
