carb spacer or no carb spacer?

vinsales · Oct 22, 2005

hi, i have a question about carb spacers. i recently bought a 350 that a guy built but never installed in anything. it has flat top pistons,stock 400 heads, an edelbrock performer intake, edelbrock carb, and edelbrock cam. it also came with a 1 inch spacer under the carb, and i am wondering just what that is supposed to do for me? i am not into racing but like low end power rather than high revs. should i keep the spacer or not? thanks

is the spacer split like the performers plenum,or 4 holes?thats ok,If it is just open,with no split or 4 holes like the throttle plate,scrap it-it will not work as intended--IMO--dont use it if you want low end grunt--67rat bob hetrick

Try it as is, a couple passes with, a couple passes without,,,same day at the track, then you'll know whether you need it or not :thumbsup:
