Very high compression, and lean

Dell,

I use a single gage also with a 4 line gang valve off of a fish tank to be able to open or close any cylinder. I used a piece of PVC pipe with caps and 2 brass inserts as a dampener and my needles don't jump at all. It's ugly, and I don't think you'd need as large of a piece of PVC, but it works well.

OOps... and here's the gang valve I use...

Thanks Tod I'll give it a try this weekend.

Anybody ever try this for synchronizing

Just a really cheap idea, I have made one but have not tried it yet.

Steve Franklin. Do you need two of the cheap sync's to do four carbs or just two at a time? Then the two sets IE: sync #3 to 4 then #1 to 2 then #4 to1

El Cheapo doesn't work!

Hey Steve,

Yeah, I tried that one, the fluid kept getting sucked up into the carbs! It's not very heavy, and the slightest out of sync, and it just flows right up into the vacuum port !!

I then got the spring analog gauge, built the plenum, and did it with one gauge....cause I used a cheap plastic 4 gang valve and it didn't work, so just kept hopping from one manifold to the other, but got it done!

So....don't bother with the fluid one!

Hey TC,
What type of fluid did you use? The site I posted is not the original one I used to build mine. The one I used said to use two stroke motor oil. I think it is heavier than the fluid this site suggested. Do you think that would make a difference?
