Personally, I wouldn't take that bet. Idle synchronization is not all that
critical, due to the balance tube in the manifold.

IMO, the "SU tool kit" does more useful things, costs less, is more rugged
(leave it bouncing around in your tool box for years without damage), and is
more accurate at synchronization. IOW, more wonderful in every respect.
One of the things it will do that the Uni-syn type cannot, is check throttle
synchronization off-idle. It also contains a mixture nut wrench, for those
times when it gets stuck.
