Nearly together then. Any progress on the seat rails?

Re: Project Q-Felicia
it's a carb balancer, it's kinda got like a little float that rises up awith the vacuum, you get a reading from the master pair, then stick it in the slave pair and adjust the balance screw till they it has the same reading
