Yeheheheheeeeee.

More shiny parts. These ARE automotive parts. But you have to guess what they are exactly.

I'll post one picture. You guys take a swing. Miss for a while. Then I post another picture.

It looked like a dual plane spacer immediately and I was just getting ready to respond when I noticed the little holes and felt somewhat confident you were making sprayers. NEX... used to sell a lot of their kits when they first started about 10yrs ago now. I think my old boss was one of the early adopters of selling their stuff...

Why is it specifically for a Ford? I would think the 4-bolt pattern is just Holley pattern and would work on any manifold (single or dual plane) with a standard (obviously not Dominator) Holley flange?

edit - Alpha, you guys should check out a Sheppard brand phenolic spacer design - you will see there is a slight taper from top to bottom (opening up slightly as you move from carb to intake). This makes more power and may help create a good customer relation with NEX should you add this feature. My spacer on the Chevy is pretty radical - slight taper, psuedo pattern that almost looks like an hour-glass all custom ground from a simple alum spacer like the one you show (but single plane as I don't run nitrous like that). It was good for 13HP over the standard spacer!
