Carb balancing question

Ok so here’s a stupid question…

There I have a couple of twin Webbers (40 DCOE 18) on the pinto and I’m suppose to balance them right, fair enough makes sense I’d want one carb to be opening the same amount as the other one, but for each carb can I adjust the individual barrels relative to each other, don’t see how, thought there might be an air bleed screw perhaps but don’t see one off those. No adjustment of the butterflies either, nope don’t see at all what I’m meant to be fiddling with.

Am I wrong here?

No you can`t balance each individual choke , you balance 1 choke on each carb to ensure both carbs are breathing the same. If that makes sense! you should be able to adjust the carbs with the linkage between them, then set them up with the idle mixture screws on each choke.
