RE: [T3] Carb synchronization tool


Hmmm mine have only a short riser on each side the carb sits on...is
this gonna be a problem?  Motorcycles often are done this way, or with a
carb each cylinder.  Come to think of it, I learned to drive in a
Corvair with dual carbs, too long ago to remember the plumbing!  (way to
long ago!)

SteveJ=> by balance pipes are you talking about carbs mounted
=> closer to the center of the engine?

No. Dual carbs require a crossover pipe connecting the manifolds.
