I haven't built or used one, but saw this and thought it might work just fine:

Thanks for your reply. I saw this on another thread and a made one. I tried to use it but I have questions about it. It helped on idle. But I'm not sure at higher rpms.

Thanks
Scott

your problem is "your carbs are not being used enough." Now that I know you get up at 530am, you can sneak out of the house, fly, and be back in time to serve your wife breakfast in bed or take her to Racer's Dungen.

Here's what I have been using to synch multi-carb setups for about 30 years. I used to have two, gave one away. These are REALLY a must have if you want to tune your engine properly. I've yet to check an engine with this tool that came to me with properly balanced carbs. 2 strokers blow up often due to poorly balanced carbeuration.

you can do it with a vacuum check off the throat. Find a place to drill and tap in a fitting, and when you want to balance just hook up a vacuum gauge to the fitting, but that is not as accurate as interrupting the inflow at the top of the venturi.

Ideally, you would have one of these for each carb, mount them all, go from there. But one works fine, just takes a little longer, and more back and forth between carbs. Heck, for 30 bucks you can save your engine, get more power, and maybe save your butt.
