Good input, Donald. Thanks. Agreed that if using dial gauges, hook up all 2 or 4 gauges to a single vacuum source, and verify they have the same reading.
It's possible to use a 2 gauge set to sync a 4 carb setup. Synchronize 3 and 4, then sync 1 and 2, and then sync the 3-4 pair with the 1-2 pair. It can be done, but having 4 gauges for 4 carbs works much quicker.
