As long as you aren't worried about getting the best performance by taking advantage of the vacuum advance, it will work just fine.

If you did want to use the vacuum advance, you have to modify or replace 1 of the carbs to use it as you need ported vacuum, not manifold vacuum. The 1st pair of HS6 carbs Volvo used had the correct ported vacuum fitting on the rear carb.
