I've just installed dual 34 carbs (EMPI) with the equalizer tube between both manifolds and can't get a good fuel mixture. (The distributor is vacuum and centrifugal.) Tried both sets of jets. Would timing be causing this problem?? Or maybe I need to connect the vacuum from both carbs to dist?

Any help would be great!

White smoke coming out the tail pipe on both sides that smells like raw fuel. We haven't been able to to adjust the carbs to mix better air and fuel better.

...how sure are you that your engine is healthy?? Maybe not the carb's fault??
