I am switching manifolds on a 235 ci Chevy from stock to Offy 2x1. The engine sits at a 4 degree tilt to the back. The stock intake carb mounting flange sits at 0 degrees I surmise so the fuel is level in the bowl. The aftermarket Offy 2x1 appears to not have this offset so when bolted up to the head the carb mounting flange will have a 4 degree rear tilt just like the engine. My question ~ should I compensate by adjusting the fuel level in the carbs? I will be using 1 bbl Stromberg BXOV-26's? I thought about sanding down the carb insulators to give "0" degrees when mounted. Recommended fuel pressure is 3 lbs.
