This is a pipemax output for a 500 cuin 1400hp pro stock engine. Extended divider carb spacer. Your donations help keep this valuable resource free and growing. Words and Photos By Richard Holdener. Whether a spacer actually will benefit any particular combination is kind of a crapshoot. I had thought about getting a 4-hole for the low-mid range boost, but I really don't need that, so I ordered a 1" open. Don't know how much it helps, but I can't see it hurting. If I take a 600cfm Edelbrock Performer carb, put it on an open 2" spacer, with multiple gaskets at the bottom to keep the heat from going into the carb, and put in on a dual plane Performer 289 intake, will the "open" of the spacer affect performance on the "dual plane" of the intake? Drag racers have been doing this for years, often with excellent results.
This design ensures the mixture entering the plenum has the least amount of air/fuel separation possible, which results in improved horsepower, torque, acceleration, and fuel mileage. Given the open plenum, the single-plane intake is often less receptive to carb spacers than the dual plane. Ok, I think there are 3 questions in there, so I'm up to $0. This one is for a 362 cuin SBC Super Stock. General question on carb spacers and I didn't want to hijack the other thread where you were talking about them. Even back in the early 1960s they were well aware that long intake runners on race engines provided a significant inertial ram tuning benefit that increased mid range torque. Whether it came from a truck, Explorer, or passenger car (like a Mustang or T Bird) mattered little to us, as we planned on replacing the entire top end, including the camshaft. If you have any further questions about which spacer is right for your project, feel free to give us a call (954-771-6216) or send us an email to. After a 700 mile round trip there wasn't much change to the Learn Table either.
70 Challenger, 440, 4-speed, pLuM cRaZy. Can't prove it, but felt it. I'm no expert, but I'd match the spacer to the manifold. Hood clearance permitting, for a race car, a taller spacer is usually better than a shorter spacer. I was told by a guy to run a different carb spacer.
With our new cam in place, it was time to improve the head flow. The idea is the throttle plates are closed most of the time so your blasting your fuel mix right into a wall when you use a four hole adapter. By adding a spacer under our throttle body, CFM is improved substantially. I notice that carb spacers are available as both 4-hole (or 2-hole for a 2V) and open designs. Picking the correct carburetor/throttle body spacer can be a daunting task with all of the options available on the market these days, but we're here to help! Engines & Components. If the heat problem is more persistent, a spacer of wood fiber laminate or plastic should be used. They are a MODIFIED open plenum design, like this. We make many different 4500 4-hole spacers so that you can match our spacer to the bore size of your carburetor or throttle body. Is your fuel boiling in the carburetor (Vapor Lock) or is it hard to restart the engine at operating temperature? The primary way a carburetor cools itself is by the intake air flowing through it.
That maintains isolated plenum feed from each side of the carb. Last edited by a moderator: But there's still the issue of total system volume versus engine airflow requirements, so in that sense spacers could still prove to be of benefit on EFI setups, although less so than in a traditional carbureted application. A 4hole can crutch the bottom end on a single plane manifold and a open can hep the top end on a dual plane, etc, etc. The insulators come with longer studs and are made of gasket material, so no extra gaskets needed to install. Open spacers only improve plenum volume, but won't pick up the CFM of the carburetor or throttle body the way the 4-hole tapered spacer does. Also, what do you think about using the spacers for heat insulators, worthwhile or just a gimmick? Wilson Manifolds 4-Hole Tapered Spacers feature a computer generated variable radius taper design that maximizes the airflow through the carburetor and enhances air/fuel distribution for more horsepower. As Wilson Manifolds' Keith Wilson puts it, "An intake is like a camshaft—they're both infinitely adjustable.
The open center style are generally used on single plane, common plenum intakes while the four hole designs are generally used on the dual plane intake designs to try to increase the distance and lessen the angle from the carb base to the intake runner entrances below the carb, in an effort to smooth flow in the dual planes twin plenums without significantly reducing the low speed responsiveness. Ignitions & Electrical. Our early Explorer 5. I haven't put it on yet, but wanted your (or anybody elses) opinion!
I've seen carbs get so hot, the accelerator pump shot vaporizes before it leaves the discharge nozzles. When it comes to 4500 (Dominator) carburetors and throttle bodies, there's a bit more to it. These are available in different types, but the best heat blocker is the 4-hole variant. The heat insulator is a thick rubber gasket to prevent heat transfer towards the carburetor. "There is no limit to what a man can do, so long as he does not care a straw who gets credit for it. That may be good or bad depending on the end goal. I got asked this question, "I was wondering what one of these new Super Sucker carb spacers would bring compared to a regular 4 hole spacer. Outdoor & Recreation.
You would not want to pick a spacer with a smaller bore size than your carburetor/throttle body as that will cause a disturbance in the air flow. Equipped with the open spacer, the peak horsepower number jumped to 402 hp at 6, 400rpm, while the peak torque remained at 370 lb-ft, but at a higher 4, 800 rpm.
