I think you'll find the 500 2 bbl not much fun. Other than the gradual opening of the 2 throttle plates there is nothing to maintain vacuum like a 4 bbl 500 would have by only opening the primaries at first. Even with a 50 / 50 split a 500 4 bbl only would allow 250 cfm through the primaries and thus keep the manifold vacuum high enough for proper fuel pull. I know 2 bbl and 4 bbl carbs are flow rated at different vacuums, but what I just mentioned is a non technical way of saying a 500 cfm 2 bbl is not the best choice for street driving on the typical inline 6.
