    As long as you pre calibrated the gauges, looks good.

      Some XS guru should confirm this, but I would check #3 (and maybe #4) idle jet screws.... alltho this isnt the best tool to set those by.
      If it doesn't have an engine, it's not a sport, it's only a game.

          As you have to gauges on there with the idle turned down nice and low turn the mixture screws and fund the spot with the highest vacuum for each cylinder, then your mixture screws are will set too.

              Mixture screws have nothing to do with Vacuum unless synched first anyways. Even then the manometer is designed to do it's job at an idle for whichever machine it is attached too. To me it sounds like your idle is too high for the low readings you have. I would seriously check your valve timing marks just to be on the safe side. Ymmv
