how about a Oklahoma,AR,MO,KS,TX,+IA GTG thread?

4 individual vacuum gauges is the best.
You can do a static by using a drill gauge to set the primary carb then adjust the rest to that gauge. Essentially, all you're doing is making sure the butterflies are open the same amount at idle.

I was trained to use a couple clear pieces of tubing with water in the with each end hooked to vac. Then tune carbs till all liquid is even.

I believe the term for that is a manometer, but I might be remembering it wrong. Afternoon All!!!

How does that hook up?
Having trouble imagining it. How does it do on a single cylinder type set up? Vacuum pulses get crazy.

Here is a video of it. Just make sure all lengths are the same on the hose they dont have to have the tees you can use a longer piece and just loop them and mount them so they are the same on the board. Hook each end up to the respective intake and adjust each carb til all fluid levels are exact.you can use water, oil, atf, whatever works just enough so it doesnt suck the opposite side dry.

So the other end just connects to each vacuum fitting on each carb?
This brings up a stupid question. What keeps the engine from sucking the fluid in?

Plenty of hose and some ppl put a restrictor inline to slow the reading down. But yes each end hooks up to each carbs vacuum port. And the vacuum from the other cylinder helps keep it from sucking it up.

Sun is out here sounds like it will be short lived.

Well a swatch of racer tape and we are good to go.

So, now we need a 350 top cover.

Let me look I think I have one

@Hedgerow how did the smoked leg turn out?

Tastes like bbq beef..

Not as Smokey as a brisket, not near as much fat as pork shoulder..

Lamb is almost too lean, but the tenderness is really impressive..

Precautions one must take if you are going to roll a Husky 345 around on your bench.

Not fun to replace bar studs. [emoji2959]

I always thought that was the reason my carb balance tubes have mercury in them. Betting you can't buy those anymore!

Nope but that's prlly the best it wont be so twitchy to vac pulses. That would be handy to have.
