Review on 🔧 Optimized 1/2-inch Carburetor Spacer by Edelbrock - Model 8723 by Mark Lodge

I have 3 of these installed, usually on my hot rods. The kit simplifies installation as it includes longer carburetor studs and 2 new gaskets. Sealant is not required. A typical installation problem is removing existing carburetor studs - they oxidize in the intake manifold and often require a double nut to remove. This 4-port model maintains proper manifold vacuum in the carburetor to ensure on-road vehicle handling. I would avoid models with an open combustion chamber. This part can help with hot starting problems (especially in hot weather) due to gas vaporization in the carburetor, but also check the clearance under the hood. Sometimes the throttle needs to be adjusted to align properly. And while everyone else is disconnected, make sure your carburetor is actually fully open when the gas pedal is floored. Indoor carpets can cost you energy.
