Too bad we can't pool carbs to pass around for trials. I had two 660 center squirters (probably what decooney's friend has) on my 496 set up synchronized; as decooney stated, once a mechanical setup is dialed in, it's hard to go to vacuum secondaries; I did because of driveability issues...if I set the 660s up progressively they might work out OK on my engine, might play with that later. I'm sure they're too much for a 390, however. The vacuum secondaries are much nicer for cruising around town, which is what I do the most with the car.
