Its very, very easy to do, and it would work. I think is was possibly the fact that 1904 carbs leak if there is no fuel through them, that probably was why Edelbrock and Holman Moody didn't do it first in 1960. The technolgy was certainly there.
It would essentially be like a vac sec 3-bbl carb, using the port vacum differential between the centre carb air velocity signal and outer air velocity signal to trigger actuation.
The Holley The Rochester triple 2G "6-bbl" 1957-1958 J2 Oldsmobile, and all Holley 2300 series Mopar 340 and 440 six packs ran that way, with no cable control to the outers.
Peak power was on par with the best single plane manifold with an optimised 4-bbl 850 to 950 cfm Holley 4150/4500 series carburation on those V8's.
There is only one reservation I have with vac sec carbs, and that applies to the best setups Detriot used ( in my opionion, the 630 cfm 5.0 Mustang and 7.5 F250 series 4180 series), to any other vac sec setup ever used. There is always a fuel conserving flat spot, and that's why early 2-bbl Jap cars and all 4-bbl vac secs, and especailly, every Mopar and Olds six pack showed awesome economy on little throttle, but heavy fuel use on wide open throttle. It is a good thing, and if there is heavy dampening so you feel a flat spot, it'll give you great power and good economy. Take it from the greatest vac secondary car racers....Don't waste your time trying to dial out a flat spot, it'll hurt your fuel economy, and won't help your performance.
