Default more questions on 2x4 setup.

on a dual quad manifold:
do both carbs need a choke

why progressive lnkage as opposed to a solid non progressive setup

do you need more then average fuel pressure

are both carbs jetted the same

how do you figure the CFM rating you need to use for the carbs

do both carbs have to be the same CFM rating, if using progressive linkage.

thanks
greg

You can choke both, but not necessary; do the back one.
Progressive much better for the street, if that is what you are doing.
Again, street can use stock pressure.
Yea, jet them the same.
Add the 2 for total.
You can, but only slight differences, jet to match. I would'nt do it.
