Carb Spacer - Tech Tips

PowerNation TV teamed up with Summit Racing to provide you this quick tech tip on carburetor spacers. A carburetor spacer can be an inexpensive bolt on part that not only helps insulate your carburetor from the heat of the engine, but also help produce horsepower and torque.

Watch as Jeff gives you some of the details of carburetor spacers you should look for to help out your build.

Trying to figure out what I need for my 1406 Edelbrock carburetor anyone know what size spacer or type needed? Thanks for any info.

I have a 396 Chevy big block. It has a Performer RPM intake and 4150 Holley 750 double pump carburetor. It has no spacer currently and thought it would improve performance.

do you have a spacer for a inline 6 I have a 1 barrel carb I want to take off the EGR

What happens if you run it without the spacer

[robertclymer]

Yes, spacers do help, especially heat soak. I am just going to a cheater nitrous plate with a 150 shot and kill two birds for my 460 BB Mild build.

I have always heard that four hole spacers are more productive on a dual plane intake. So what might an open spacer do for a dual plane?

[robertclymer]

Anyone know if you get longer studs or can you buy separately???? Thanks

[ricklodestein]

He is incorrect! There is open, 4 hole and 2 hole divided. Why he only said 2 is odd.
