Has anyone played with carb spacers on a basically stock 292? If so, what were the results?

I seem to remember something about engine power related to carb spacer height and thought about building a simple riser to see what happens

i seem to remember reading something like that too, but can't remember it. i thought a little thicker spacer raised torque or horsepower. hope you find out and let us know. i forget 3/4 of everything i read.

I just don't want to go too extreme and have the truck flip over backwards when I hit the gas! big_eek
