That's the common thought, but that's not correct.

As long as you use vacuum secondary carburetors and progressive linkage, 2 Holley 600's will work perfectly fine on a 302, non-stroked, street engine.

But you are really only gaining the visual impact.

Think about how they work. The vacuum secondaries will only open if the engine needs it, so on a 302, they will usually be closed. So, you really just have a 600 double pumper, running off the front 2 barrels of each carburetor.
