Very often, yes.

Get a digital/infrared thermometer and read the heat output on each cylinder where the header pipe exits the cylinder head.

You can then adjust the fuel air mixture of each carb to dial in a very close temperature match.

I have found on my Amals that a turn on carb #1 air screw does not necessarily mean replicating that adjustment on carb #2. I adjust for a temp. match, not turns or partial turns of an adjustment screw.

Each carb "breathes" differently from the other so adjust accordingly.


This gives you a good starting point and THEN one can really start tweaking toward optimizing breathing performance of your engine.

Cable synchronization from twist throttle to carb is a big deal in terms of  synchronized performance and unless your synch is dead nuts on you will always be tweaking that variable as well.
