It looks like it fits one barrel carb tops. I'm not sure you could use it on the tb's, as there isn't enough room to fit the tool over the bore, and the tool would block the injectors fuel stream totally.

I am far from an expert, but the balancing technique is to measure the vacuum over each TBI intake area via the provided connection. Balance both to the same inches of vacuum. Do not see how these measure AIRFLOW.

because of the injectors some kind of a adapter on the throat of the tb would be needed.not sure of any thing till I get one of you rich guys to buy one.They showed it being used to set the the three carbs on a flat head .It gauges the amount of air that comes in thru the butter fly .If it could be made to work on a cross-fire it might make it easy to balance the tbs.i will be taking donations lol
