<VV> Meters

[Bill Elliott]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manometer

In Corvair terms, it can be a null gauge attached to vacuum ports on 
both carbs... so that when the vacuum is equal (carbs are properly 
balanced) it reads zero.... or it can be a liquid filled tube attached 
to the ports that works in much the same way... when the liquid columns 
are equal on both sides, the carbs are synched.

The advantage of a manometer over a Unisyn or the like is that you can 
more easily use it at higher engine speeds/loads and it doesn't alter 
airflow into the carb. (I still use a Unisyn though...)
