    I ran three dueces on a SBC for over two years without any problem. It IS necessary to do the following: Tighten all your fasteners and fittings frequently. never run over 4 1/2 PSI on your fuel lines. Run carb cleaner through all three regularly. Open up all three at least once a week to allow a good fuel flow through them. It probably sounds like a lotta' work, but it's not really! I'd be willing to bet you'll LOVE the cool look of those carbs, and more than likely never get tired of the compliments you'll receive from others! Good Luck!
