I have been working on this for a very long time! I am finally done with it.

My carbs are perfectly balanced now. And everything is tuned up exactly right!

Here is a video:

Are those SUs?  
I fought with SUs on an MGB and an Austin Healey 3000 back in the 1960s.  
Congratulations on getting them balanced!

I fought with dual carbs on a BMW Bavaria in the 80’s. I replaced the stock carbs with Webers which allowed me to at least drive the car back and forth to work. I had a carb balancing gadget with little colorful balls floating inside it, never mastered that gadget. One of the happiest days of my young life was the day I sold that car…
