Looking at making up some of these. These are intended to help insulate the carbs from the engine further at the carb base. Who's interested?
These were available at one time for $15 each. I should be able to do a set of 4 for $24, if i can get some quantity. Figured I'd see how much interest is out there. Attached image(s) |

I'm not familiar with this concept... > I've been having issues with heat transfer... I'd be in for a set! How do you know if you are having issues? -Steve They are stock on type 4 FI, a set comes in the gasket set, manifold to head. Heat soak leads to percolation, vapor lock, bad running issues. Are these for the carb to manifold? To install the phenolic spacers, one would need 8 individual gaskets for a dual carb setup. I would add the extra gaskets as well so peeps don't have to source them separately. |
