The reason for that isn't clear to me either, and the fact that yours opened shows that its not always the case.  The dyno is loading the engine, so there really isn't any reason why the secondaries shouldn't open on the dyno.  But, often they don't...

Sweet set up I  wish it was in my 62 with my tko 600 behind it
1962 ford Galaxie 390 .030 Ross pistons,comp cam,edelbrock heads,tremec 3550 , 9" with 4:10 gears.....it's my idea of therapy , I'm always looking for vintage Stewart Warner gauges with curved glass and the crecent pointer

We are not through yet.   Sent the heads and intake to Lawes Mayfield to see if he could improve upon them.

Love reading this kind of stuff! I remember my Uncle playing around with his well built 440 in his boat. Came to the same conclusion (even though its a Dodge) that the T-Ram did better then the single 4 set up. I love the experience and expertise of everyone here. Well thought out ideas....JMHO
