If I remember correctly, those in-line carbs do not have to be separated to pull the bowls off the bottom. That is more then half the aggravation at cleaning these. Go easy on the Rubber manifolds, they are old.
Do yourself a favor and go to a Welding supply place and buy Tip Cleaners for acetylene torches to clean the Jets.
If you just pull the bowls and take out and clean the Idle Jets (they are the ones that are low and sit in the Crappy gas)You shouldn't have to Sychronize or adjust anything.
