Yes you would just remove it, the DUI has it's own coil all ready built in

I like the one wire... might have condisered it myself but my stock wireing on the car I know won't handle it properly.

offenhauser kit for modifying the log head only supports three one barrel carbs.
Other than some intakes custom made and a few retro fitted from other engines multi carb set ups are mostly used on the log head by milling the top of the intake from there and securing the desired carb to the intake.
The multi carb route has always been very temping for the cool factor and the added performance but as you will notice from first hand accounts it takes more up keep than just a single carb set up.
So if you plan on driving your car daily its something to consider, but on a side note I have heard of plans or set ups where they made the outside carbs able to be shut off. Disconnecting both the fuel and throttle plates would allow the simplicity of a single carb and then when you wanted it the power of multi carbs with the cool factor. It would be super sweet to make them activate off a switch so you could have your own go go button.

Secondaries were not opening. I just went on and installed the quick change kit for it, as it makes it a lot easier to change the springs. Spring change's were needed to make the transition smooth when the secondaries cut in.

Thank you Explorer. I have been doing a lot of reading on jetting the Holly and the Weber. Apparently you have to re-jet the carb for the application.
I'm still not clear on the process tho. Guess I'll be crossing that bridge when me gets to it... I have noted your adjustments. Until I can determine which carbs to use I will have to wait...
Q: How did you know to make the changes at the vacuum secondary springs.?
Tanks bubba… It took me so long to get back kuz I had to leave the country for a week..
Visiting the grandkids in Cal e forn ya as ol’s swartz calls it..
Think maybe I leave the coil there and run a dummy wire… yes… no????

Yeah I like that just to keep them guessing! Maybe run the fake extra coil wire into the intake and tell me it's the new Electromagnetic SuperCharger! :rolflmao:
Looks like your engine is in good condistion!
heck man your antics are worse than mine. .and mine are really up there..
I was surprised to see 7 main bearings. I feel better about beefing it up some.

Abandoned Bronco, has a thread on FTE tuning the Holley 390 on his 300ci that I started following. Seeing as the flow numbers on my 200 were about the same, applied that information.
I spent the last couple hours trying to find Abandoned Bronco thread…
Any ideas..
