Question How to adjust and sync twin Solex carbs?

Hey, all:

I have a '68 220 with dual Solex carbs (I think they're the 36/41 variety), and I'm wondering what's the best technique for adjusting and balancing them. Of course, like in any car of this vintage, the carbs could most likely use a complete rebuild, but that's not gonna happen for a while yet...in the meantime, I just want to get them running as smoothly as they can.

And yes, I've been through the search process, and found not much at all specific. Do I have to have a Uni-Syn or the like?

Any help will be most appreciated.

Thanks!
