The middle two downpipes are blueing up but the outer two arent does this suggest carbs are out of balance or just thinner chrome

Hmmmmmm, centre pots always run a bit hotter.... It's not unknown for #3 & 4 to run on slightly larger jets in the racing arena
As this is tied in with "coils" too, best to double check timing

Most of the repro pipes I have used tend to blue a little . Never have the problem with my original pipes with the thicker downtubes. Bluejob polish does a great job of getting the blue marks off if its any help

The originals were probably double skinned.
Piggy - 2&3 are the middle ones

Hi i would try a gunson colourtune to see if all the pots are burning the same,
Do the centre two plugs have a different clour to the outer two? Cheers Pauljac...
