Reply to "Angled Carb Spacer"

Scott Cook is an Australian fellow who manufactures a copy of the factory 351C intake manifold for stuffed 4V port type heads. According to Scott the carb pad angle on the oem manifold is only about 4 degrees (I forget the exact number). This really surprised me because the wedge shaped spacers designed for boats are about 10 degrees, so I always assumed that was the angle of the carb pad on the manifold too.

I'll just reinforce what has already been said ... if you want to level your carburetor the best thing to do is have the manifold's carb pad milled flat, since its only at a 4 degree angle it won't take much machining.
