I learned the hard way when I was a kid that on a Mopar Six Pack the carb linkage is to CLOSE the outer carbs.....

Me too! I had the throttle return spring break on my 440+6 Cuda coming out of a toll booth on I-95 in Connecticut back in the day. Throttles opened and stayed open with all 6 barrels at WOT. Still in first gear at 7000 rpm, all I had time to do was click the igntion key off to kill the spark. The resulting backfire blew out the mufflers and the window(s) in the toll booth. The cops found me on the side of the road about a half mile away. Shaker was already off and I was scratching my head at what the heck went wrong. The Trooper was a car guy and handed me a couple rubber bands to rig it up so I could get home. No tickets!
