Default Need a spacer

I am trying to locate a collector flange spacer for an SPF small block. I need one that is tapered 1/2" to 1/8". I called Craigs Cobras, and he is going to be out of pocket for awhile, and I am looking at 1mo or more to get one. He mentioned some one else who mentioned having one, but I did not catch the name.
If any one has one, or info for another source I could use a little help.

Thanks, excop

check FFCars.com : Factory Five Racing Discussion Forum site.
They use a lot of tapered spacers.

1/2" is a lot.

are these the spacers between the headers and sidepipes?

I have one of Craig's spacers in stock but not 1/2". That's a lot....perhaps there are other issues going on? Mu spacer is likely 3/8" on the thick side.

PM for details.

Thanks for your help guys. After looking at the problem from a different angle, I think I will lower the opening instead of raising the pipe.
This all started with different pipes, trips to the dyno, weekends at Hallett raceway, different tires, the typical Cobra sickness.
I have since moved, so no more Hallett. I have proved to myself I can go fast, so I think I will just cruise the curvy roads, and enjoy the car at a more moderate pace.

Default spacer

If you decide you need one, pm me and I will see what I can do. Just made one for my B&B and saved the programs. It is probably the same pattern.
