Well, with a common exhaust that are fed by all cylinders, I simply set both
carbs at the same level and make adjustments to each.  My TR6 allows for
this since both separate tail pipes commingle exhaust in the muffler.

If I had two completely separate exhaust pipes that were fed from the
cylinders that were fed from separate carbs, the issue is even easier.
Simply run the engine and test each exhaust pipe separately, keeping in mind
that you have to adjust the correct carb for each pipe.

Hope this helps.

How does the Gastester work on a car with multiple carbs? In other words how
do you know where to make the adjustment the device recommends?
