Oh I agree. Didn't mean to make it sound like the CFM lose a bad thing. The Holleys on the 428CJs had the down leg bosters and you lost 45 CFM but the throttle response was unreal (780 to 735 CFM).

750 holley vac secondaries. model 3310-2. the only way to go on a mild 460. vac secondaries canbe adjusted to only open under heavy loads and not waste gas under normal loads.
