Pretty ingenious in it's simplicity, looks like any competent welder could make that happen. The carb supports look like the magic VS the actual manifold.

Looks like they added a piece to the rear intake port to change the geometry, I wonder how they synchronize the carburetors.

The heads are made by STD Development, with the rear one (left in the photo) modified to change the angle of the inlet. Looks like quite a serious piece of work to me and, if not a one off, I doubt if many have been made! Probably race-tuned and worth contacting STD, to see if they can offer any info. Where did you find that photo?

multiple carb setups are usually sync via vac signal so as to carry equal load.

May I ask what are you trying to accomplish?
Harley used dual carbs on some of the race flat track Sportsters back in the day, =High RPM compared to what street bikes run.
If you are a cruiser I think you will be disappointed, as your lungs have become very singular not using volumetric energy /efficiency to help fill them.
