I do not use spacers or anything other than gaskets, I do not have any heat related issues with the carbs. What is the problem that you are having?

Default Gathering parts

I have begun a project to put Webers on my build and am gathering the parts for the project.

Research shows that most guys are running spacers, but few posted how thick they were.

I currently have 3x2's installed on the FE motor and heat is a little bit of an issue when the motor/ambient temp is high - vapor lock. A friend has weber's on his 289 and they would drip if the heat was high. All reasons to reduce the bowl temp as much as possible.

I will be ordering the phenolic and didn't know what thickness worked the best.

Paul
