Synchrometer Recommendations, Your "secrets" on Carb Sync tools Options

[Martin Baker]

Well, after many years being away from Carbs, and learning Robert Bosch's systems on my own personnel vehicles, I am now taking what I learned about basic carb principles, to tuning Holleys for drag racing, and reading the two different books I bought on Webers, I would like to ask all of you kind folks what Carb Synchrometer is your personnel favorite? I see the Uni-Syn and another named Synchrometer TYPE SK from Redline Inc. The latter is much more exspensive than the uni-syn. An ex-F1 mechanic here in town says Uni-Syn. Are there others, and has anyone used this Redline product? Thanks.

What size venturis are you running?  Carbs are 40's?

And I use the STE

I do not have any of that info, other than the carbs are 40's. I have not taken anything apart just yet, I wanted learn more before I do anything. I just won a Uni-syn on e-bay, and am bidding on the Redline type as well. I got the Uni for $20 new in the box. I'll know on the other in another day. I will just buy one if I don't win this one. John Dunkel might know the info on the carbs. He told me that it has clogging issues on the idle's.

JP, as far as shifts, you wouldn't believe how it is where I work, I have no set shift, no days off, vacation, benifits, etc. My Boss says Christmas is just another day. If there is a plane on the ground, no matter how long, I am there. The Aviation buisness has little concern for those who make it happen. My record so far is a 23 hour day, at work. That makes for a real interesting drive home after work. Soon as my Wife finishes her Degree, I am done fixing jets...I will try my luck at an education. They say you are never to old. Not sure if I agree. But I will try. I have tried to break into the automotive scene, at least they are off on Sunday's, and don't work to late into the night.
