Both the vac and mech secondary carbies you would use are square bore so at cruising = no extra fuel consumption, around town if your using more than half throttle = some extra due to the secondary accelerator pump activating some what, but full throttle like track work really works the secondary acc. pump so definatly more on the track - but worth it.

My 302 is out to 310 with cam, heads, mechanical pump, single fuel line with 600 DP square bore about 300 at fly wheel - goes to 6,500 quite regular without starvation.
