Could someone have pity on me and point me to some kind of resource
describing how to sync three carbs.

Check with one or more of the British sports car groups. They do
this all the time.

Any one in particular? I'm not familiar with British technology and
would have no idea who has what.

Do a quick google under "British sports car" or "SU carburetor".

Nevermind, I found it. However, I'm not too sure I have three of these.

No, you probably don't. SU (Skinner Union) is a British carburetor common
on Brit sports cars of years ago, and still found in the restoration and
rally club world. Often found in tandem, banks of three, and occasionally a
double bank of three.

The point of the reference is not the carburetor itself, but the skill and
knowledge. Most of the people currently adept at tuning a bank of three
carburetors (regardless of manufacturer) will be found around the British
sports car environment, if they haven't yet gone mad.

Of course, you could also go to

and order a manual for your engine.
