When I was sandblasting my intake manifold I forgot or let's say I did not know and see that there is a spacer between the manifold and the carb. There was so much mud and dirt cacked on that it was hard to see.
Sand blasting dose not help the shape of this spacer.
It is a 235 with original Rochester carb
My question is.
1) why is this spacer there ?
2) where can I find a spacer or does any body have a old one which he can part with?
I found a supplier in Vancouver BC, but he want's $65.00 Canadian.
I also found a slighly smaler one and was be able to make the bolt holes larger to fit on, but the hight was different and the mounting studs in Header are touching the carb. Can I use in adition two thick gaskets to get the proper height?
