I have run the 500 and the 600 Edelbrock on stock to nearly stock engines without any trouble. I never unhooked any of the secondaries because they never come into play anyway. Like you said it takes a certain amount of air flow to open the secondary air door. And a stock slant 6 will be pushing it to get any kind of use out of the secondaries. Not saying you can't get them to open up, just that it will likely run just as well off the front two.
