Rich Kinsley '64 Dodge Polara 4dr 318poly w/goodies Dang it, I hit another blooper with my carb spacers. I got the phenolic Edelbrock 4 hole carb spacers and they don't fit my Weiand manifold. The problem is that the carbs have a dual mount pattern and the spacer uses the wide mount while my manifold has the narrow mount pattern. I definetly want the 4 hole style for bottom end improvement and all that is offered in wood is open. It probably is the wider pattern too so they wouldn't work. I decided to go ahead and just make a pair. I have a very knowledgeable wood working "A" team member, Terry Bohnert, who can do this for me. We discussed it and I think we'll make a dual carb, one piece spacer. I think it'll look pretty unique. I want it stained so it looks like wood too. I'm thinking it should be between 1 and 1&1/4" with slightly tapered venturi. Here's the questions: What wood? (We're thinking plywood and probably Baltic Birch.) What should we treat it with to seal the wood and not react with the gas? Varnish will melt. How about epoxy? Is urethane OK with gas? Shoot me your ideas. (If anyone wants some Edelbrock #8711 phenolic spacers, I have two.) ---- Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
