That's correct, but Lew hit the nail on the head. The vacuum secondaries are not really operated on manifold vacuum. They are operated on the air rushing through the rear venturis on the carburetor. Technically, that's a little different. If it WAS operated on manifold vacuum, the secondaries...
Did he actually say it wouldn't work the vacuum secondaries? Dammit. Who are they hiring these days? What a moron. It will work fine. No need for a vacuum can. You'll see.
