    In my estimation they are more trouble than they are worth.
    With as big a balance tube as the Volvo manifolds have the synchronization
    is not that critical. Mostly you just have to get them to both close and start
    to open together so you can get a reasonably slow idle.

      Syncronization is critical if you are using the normal methods of setting the misture by lifting the pistons at idle.

      I have a Uni-syn, and I drilled a few holes in the face to use on the DCOE's. There's no blanace tubes at all on those carbs, so it's even ore critical to get the air flow even before attempting to set the idle mixture.
