James, my experience with sync devices is not that great as they seem to
introduce an element from Hiesenberg into the process unless you have all of
the planets aligned (rpm, air bleed on the device etc). I have a lot better
luck with a short piece of tube. Stick one end in your ear, hold the other end
against the carb venturi so that the end of it is sticking up into the air
flow and you have it in the same position for each carb. Listen to the sound
of the air rushing past the end of the tube. When it sounds the same for all
carbs you are done.
Once you get them set up with the ear method see what your sync device is
saying. Use the lowest rpm and widest air opening on the sync device as you
can get away with to reduce the tendency of the device to affect the running
engine.

Subject: [6pack] Help with Sync'ing those darn carbs...
I have a 1976 TR6...with the stock dual strombergs.
during the many tune ups, I don't think I have ever gotten the
air-float tool to ever match up between the two carbs!
i try adjusting the wheel, adjusting the carbs. no luck.
i have gotten the carbs to run great in the past, but will be doing
a tune up next week and hope to tune these babies better.
(they were rebuilt recently by me and never got total sync'ed)
any advice?
anyone else have trouble?
thanks!
james
