I have a Jim inglese supplied system with the crossbar type linkage It's on 289, not a big block, but for the sake of this discussion, that is not relevant. It absolutely opens each back of carb equally from idle to WOT. Don't see how others are having so many issues with this.
Now maybe in theory, there is some minor variation from side to side, I don't know. But in actual practice, with quality dial gauges positioned on opposing carbs, there is zero MEASURABLE difference from bank to bank with the crossbar linkage. At least with the one that Jim I. sold me. Now I can imagine that someone could try to cobble together a similar linkage, and get in ALL wrong if they didn't know what they were doing.
