The problem you have is the crossbar linkage.

It will never work like that, even though Redline markets it.

The carbs or throttle bodies need to have the SAME throttle arms and they need to be independently operated from a centrally located bellcrank.

Draw your linkage on paper as viewed from the front of the car.

You can see how the drivers side will open more rapidly early in the throttle cycle.

It is because of the smaller angle between the drivers arm and the crossbar compared to the passengers side.

I would also add a vacuum reservoir tapped into each runner, to even out the manifold pulses at low engine speed.

Your map sensor then hooks up to this reservoir.
