ok,

After receiving a goodnights sleep, I was able to come up with an idea. As Eljaro mentioned that the phoenlic spacers did help alittle with the fuel boiling.

Eljaro,
I am curious to hear how much of a difference did the spacers make?

If the spacers made a significate difference then this just might work. Here we go...


Instead of using spacers or even with the aid of spacers creating a shield that mounts to the 4 mounting bolts of the carb. This shield will be elevated just underneath the carb body below the cam, shaft, spring assembly. My thought is that the fuel must be getting the heat from the intake , which in turn passes it to the carb body.

I will try to provide a diagram for better explaination.

Any thoughts ? Comments?
