Newer versions look like the below, or one can use a wideband O2 sensor setup or other similar device(s) now but old school people used old school tuning devices... like their ears, basic vacuum gauge, etc..

The Weber carburators were finicky but when they were tuned well, the car just idled beautifully, especially the old F1 cars, and some exotics like the Weber's on top of the Ford Cammer engine below.
I never had trouble syncing carburetors on my cars. Reason: I never had a car with more than 1 carburetor.
